something that is being called "af_packet".
I have never heared this before and would like to ask if someone on the list knows what this means.
It is a standard Linux module. I don't know exactly what it does but when I tried to build a minimal SuSE autoinstall disk, without af_packet the DHCP client wouldn't get an address so it seems do have something to do with very basic networking.
