t I =0Anever did effectively find out how to tell if PACKETFILER option is =
part of my =0Arunning kernel, other than to run tcpdump and it worked! :)=
=A0Oddly, the =0A/dev/pfilt files were never created, but it seems to work.=
 Some good advice I =0Agot from this was that there is a man page on settin=
g up packet filtering, man =0Apacketfilter.=0A=0A=0A=0A----- Original Messa=
