i tried this once, a few years back, and gave up. interestingly, before i gave up, i tried all the other character devices with the same major number as /dev/hme (/dev/le, /dev/ip, /dev/rawip, etc) and found that using /dev/sp (aka running tcpdump -isp0) will make the kernel panic. i never found any packets, though. -- |-----< "CODE WARRIOR" >-----| [EMAIL PROTECTED] * "ah! i see you have the internet [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Andrew Brown) that goes *ping*!"
