If you are looking for a decent source for patches you could consider downloading the latest source-rpm from RHEL4/CentOS4. The bonding driver in those releases have been updated to much later code and I can tell you from personal experience they work pretty well. You may need to do some backporting to get the latest arp-monitoring features, but let me know if you need a hand with that, I might have some laying around. ;) > I just did another experiment.

Does eth6 use the same hardware/driver as eth4/5? (Sorry if I missed that in the thread, but didn't see if you indicated that it did.) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
