Even so, connection tracking needs an extra few bytes per connection, whereas a daemon which forks for each connection may require a few hundred Kb or more per connection. -- Glynn Clements <glynn.clements@xxxxxxxxxx> - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-admin" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
