I'm also wondering why IPV6_PRIVACY, IPV6_ROUTER_PREF, IPV6_ROUTE_INFO are compile time switches at all, while there're runtime switches which are of by default. It would be nice to have more IPv6 features enabled (at compile time) by default, so that features can be turned (at runtime) with default distribution kernels. Is there a chance get patches accepted, which remove some compile time switches? metze --------------enigE0D8ABB161F60B72774EDB34 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk4cxKkACgkQm70gjA5TCD/QvwCgxfRetglogQc1mWmYnhnn4pRa 0SYAn1Ivg/j7vyhvWJA9tTbNulzHXSQ/ =lP6C -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigE0D8ABB161F60B72774EDB34--
