I would not even visit that site... It's mostly a waste of time as most of the tunings are not up-to-date or just plain wrong. OpenBSD ships with pretty sane defaults that normally do not need any tweaking unless you run some unorthodox configuration. If you need to tweak something look into the faq and the sysctl(3) man page and not to calomel.org Could you please be a bit more specific about your setup? Are you using pppoe(4) or pppoe(8)? Do you see maxed out mbufs (netstat -m), a very high interrupt load (top / vmstat -i), ifq drops (sysctl net.inet.ip.ifq.drops), interface errors (netstat -i)? I'm running pppoe(4) on a lot of Geode 500MHz powered boxes and have no problem getting 30Mbit/s throughput of unencrypted traffic... g Andri
