Who's the maintainer of inet?

2002-02-04 Thread Reto Trachsel (NetModule)
Hi All I solved the problem with the ICMP Redirect in the Source file an recompiled the Kernel. All works fine now. I think, it would be a possibility to put this option into the FreeBSD Sources, or as an option in the sysctl? ICMP Redirect is a simple way to relieve a *BSD Router. Why we put al

1000baseSX driver support?

2002-02-04 Thread Matt Wilbur
Hi all, I'm trying to figure out if there are *any* 1000baseSX NICs supported in 4.5-RELEASE? I've tried a GA-621T and a Tigeon (3c985B), with no luck. LINT suggests that nge will support DP83820 and DP83821 chipsets.. but our GA621T (with a DP83820) won't work. It suggests that ti will support

The syskonnect 1000baseSX and 1000baseTX cards work quite well as of 4.2-RELEASE (man sk). I can only assume that they continue to be supported (they are as of 4.4-R.). If you have existing tigon nics, this won't help you. If you're looking for stuff to buy, syskonnect cards work fine.
