[Sorry, catching up.] So, if a user renames bge0 to net0, what kstats exist? Does bge:0:bge0 exist? Does bge:0:net0 exist? If the kstat names change, does the accumulated data transfer to the new kstat? How can I tell that a kstat has changed name? -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
