i just wanted to make sure that there is a way to absolutely make sure that there is no default address selection policy installed. the wide know rule 9 of rfc 3484 is really messing things up for dns-style load balancing. even when ipv6 is not used. personally, i don't think that "none" is unreasonable word for "ip6addrctl_policy", but i don't feel particularly strongly about it. any name will do as long as original functionality is preserved. thanks, max _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
