Julian is of course correct... but Garrett you missed my point... Forget netstat for a second. The question is simply, "I'm offering to fix libkvm to understand KLD modules; is anybody interested?" Whether libkvm should even exist in a perfect world (it shouldn't) is an entirely different question. For now, we're stuck with it until somebody changes *everything* to use sysctl instead. -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
