I agree that the two options are mutually exclusive, but I don't agree that it doesn't make sense to have both. It's not clear if there is a default or what it defaults to or when such a default is relevant. There needs to be a "half-duplex" option to make this explicitly clear in the configuration. -DG David Greenman Co-founder, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org President, TeraSolutions, Inc. - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.
