This is getting too implementation-specific, so I guess we had better kill this thread, at least from here...

But being built this way, the kernel performing security checks cannot know which interface is which. -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, Netcore Oy not those you stumble over and fall" Systems.
