Hi Sean. I have no objections to your patch, except that the 4 device limit seems arbitrary. I would suggest to dynamically kmalloc() up a string buffer after parsing the option string counting the "/" characters present. That way there is no limit to the number of devices which can be specified. Please make this change and resubmit your patch so that I can include it, thanks! - 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
