Subject: neighbor vs neighbour
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2009 14:31:34 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200906251431.34677.bcook@bpointsys.com> (raw)

I was looking at netstat -6 -s to debug a routing issue, and noticed that the 
output is a little confusing. What's the difference between 'neighbor 
solicits' and 'neighbour solicits'. And yes, I've already hear the 'Atlantic 
Ocean' joke :) Is one TX vs RX?
