He can either add this patch to his ipv6 bug fix submission for 2.6.21, or he can just submit the ipv6 parts and I can merge Herbert's ipv4 patch myself. Just let me know what to do. - 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
