I am a kernel developer, in my spare time, which is very scarce these days. Obviously, hacking on Netfilter, is different from hacking on kernel packages. I'll have a crack at it tonight, if you're happy. But remember: * I'm still learning my way around Debian packaging, * My machine is slow as all hell (the good old p100 with 48meg of ram absolutely *slogs* through any kernel build, let alone SEVERAL), * I don't have a lot of time, and I have homework to do. -- Daniel Stone Linux Kernel Developer, in his spare time [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 G!>CS d s++:- a---- C++ ULS++++$>B P---- L+++>++++ E+(joe)>+++ W++ N->++ !o K? w++(--) O---- M- V-- PS+++ PE- Y PGP>++ t--- 5-- X- R- tv-(!) b+++ DI+++ D+ G e->++ h!(+) r+(%) y?
