Re: [PATCH] ng_tag - new netgraph node, please test (L7 filtering possibility)

Hi,

I'm very interested in this, great work! :-)
I can't load the kld on my Sun Sparc, I think I messed up ld yesterday
trying to patch for a bug that show's in firefox and mozilla. It
compiles, just doesn't run. As soon as I have it up and running I'll
give you feedback.

Have you tested it with pf? If so can you give me some examples?
I'm particularly interested in this for doing packed shaping, especially on P2P.

Thanks for your work!
