And as a result we'll end up with all kinds of protocol specific things in the net namespace structure which totally stinks. Such things will need to be registered dynamically just like the protocols themselves are into the kernel. -- 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
