I am continually amazed by the people who run OpenBSD who don't take this advice. I always expected a smarter

OpenBSD 4.0 released Nov 1, 2006

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nov 1, 2006.

We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 4.0.
This is our 20th release on CD-ROM (and 21st via FTP).  We remain
proud of OpenBSD's record of ten years with only a single remote
hole in the default install.  As in our previous releases, 4.0
provides significant improvements, including new features, in nearly
all areas of the system:

- New/extended platforms:
    o OpenBSD/armish.
      Various ARM-based appliances, using the Redboot boot loader, currently
      only supporting the Thecus N2100 and IOData HDL-G.
    o OpenBSD/sparc64.
      UltraSPARC III based machines are now supported!
    o OpenBSD/zaurus.
      Support for the Zaurus SL-C3200. 

- Improved hardware support, including:
    o New msk(4) driver for Marvell/SysKonnect Yukon-2 Gigabit Ethernet.
    o New bnx(4) driver for Broadcom NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet.
    o New xge(4) driver for Neterion Xframe/Xframe II 10Gb Ethernet.
    o New rum(4) driver for Ralink Technology 2nd gen USB IEEE
      802.11a/b/g wireless.
    o New acx(4) driver for Texas Instruments ACX100/ACX111
      IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless.
    o New pgt(4) driver for Connexant/Intersil Prism GT Full-MAC
      IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless.
    o New uath(4) driver for Atheros USB IEEE 802.11a/b/g wireless.

Hi
this has been discussed here before ....
 From the man page
-----------------------------------
NAT can also be applied to enc# interfaces, but special care should be
taken because of the interactions between NAT and the IPsec flow 
matching, especially on the packet output path.  Inside the TCP/IP 
stack,packets go through the following stages:

I don't know if I mentioned this already, but the Intel Gigabit Ethernet 
chip on Sun's AMD64 systems isn't even supported under Solaris.  
Windows drivers only.  I have heard rumors that a recent build
of OpenSolaris includes driver support though.

Sun T1 105

I am looking for some feedback on this DMESG if possible.

I am playing with an old Sun T1 105 and does look like it work well, but 
I never saw so many not configure message in a single DMESG.

Can anyone clue me in. Is that really normal, did I most likely forgot 
something, etc.

That's my first time with this Sum hardware type, so I am not sure as to 
what's normal or not.

Thanks

Daniel
