Wrong. As I stated originally, it's impossible to use 'maxsockbuf' value. kernel uses another value to check user supplied arguments, and this value is ~4-5% less than maxsockbuf. Therefore attempt to use 'maxsockbuf' as bufsize will fail in 100% of cases. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
