linux kernel question

2008-10-04 Thread Desmond Chapman
What linux kernel is the debian bsd emulating? Is it a 2.6.x or still a 2.4.x? And, since this crosses mailing lists, has anyone tried a virtualbox build on the debian kFreeBSD project? Will the FreeBSD project bring back linux emulation with Debian or is it going to remain unsupported?

I'd suggest using port forwarding with NATD instead since I'm assuming you are already running NAT between 192.168.1.1 and your ADSL public address. The natd man page covers port and address forwarding pretty well. On Sunday 22 August 2004 10:02 am, Henk wrote: Dear FreeBSD addict, I am
