That thought did cross my mind when i was coding this;-> I hate the way netlink filters are done in user space with iproute2 - dumping 50 objects just so i can get to one. So i used that as my guiding principle; i have no qualms with the few extra lines. Actually, I was hoping it would provide motivation for someone else to do a better filtering scheme (which sits in the kernel). cheers, jamal - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
