Hard to pull a cable in vmware. ;-)

I'll give those a shot, thanks!

Oh, I have absolute control over the trap contents, from inside my own
code, where they're being sent from. What I don't have control of is
the system that lets me know when ports have gone up or down (no, I
can't use the same methods that the daemon as is does, long story), so
to make sure I'm firing those traps correctly I need to make a vm
think that it's network hardware was crossed with a rubber ball (up,
down, up down...). Like I originally said, only somewhat related. ;-)

Thanks, Ron and Mike.
