Re: Building a kernel with SCTP support

Kip:

Yes, we have a dependancy that both IPv4 and IPv6 are
present. A while ago the guy that works on the NetBSd
side of the code (who I can't remember his name since he
has pretty much stopped working on it.. sigh) was trying
to seperate things out.. but we have never put an effort
into making it compileable without v6.. or without v4
for that matter..

You have to have both ... not that v6 needs to be enabled..
its just the data structures :-)
