Over the weekend (and a bit of tonight/friday night), I hacked up some changes to support using "ipf -T" on timeouts and table sizes at runtime, without having to disable IPFilter. This will also open the door to being able to do "set <name> <value>;" in ipf.conf - something that should make life easier for a lot of people. The only catch will be if changing the size of the table is requested at runtime and there are a large number of active entries (think closer to 100,000 or more) as the resize needs to reinsert every entry back into the new table.
The preliminary diffs are at: http://coombs.anu.edu.au/~avalon/ipf-T-runtime.patch If nobody can see a problem with this approach, I'll commit these changes later on in the week. I have no plans to backport this to ipf 4.1.* Cheers, Darren ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
