I am reading the thread backwards, so i may miss some of the obvious. I also dont remember the exact discussion we had - but the consensus was to leave the field setting as is. Note the meta-setter (been sitting on it for too long) also set the input_dev. BTW, in regards to the VLANs, what is wrong with using the netdev->iflink to figure the real device? cheers, jamal - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
