there is no equivalent, the dummynet version on linux only works at layer3 (attached to the pfilter hooks). Probably it can be made to work at a lower layer but i am not sure how. Other FreeBSD sysctl are remapped to /sys/module/ipfw_mod/parameters/* and accessible with regular filesystem read/write calls cheers luigi _______________________________________________ freebsd-ipfw@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ipfw To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ipfw-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
