However bpf(4) states that the required line is: 'pseudo-device bpf' and this is supported by LINT. Its confusing to have multiple options, even if both of them work. >How-To-Repeat: books/faq/book.sgml >Fix: Apply: 8876c8876 < pseudo-device bpfilter # Berkeley Packet Filter --- > pseudo-device bpf # Berkeley Packet Filter Dominic Marks >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: jim State-Changed-When: Sun Aug 19 11:51:58 PDT 2001 State-Changed-Why: Committed, thanks! http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=29872 >Unformatted:
