Thanks for the suggestions, both make sense IMO. I've added it to the todo list for 2.3, along with the iproute2 evaluation
Regards, Johannes
Thanks for that and especially for iproute2. At the time I am 'playing' with ipsec-tools[1] (port of KAME's implementation). So far looks well, but have to try automatic key exchange and cooperation with other OS's. There are already some very useful advanced tools in contrib: bridge-utils, quagga(zebra). It would be nice to have ebtables[2] also. Quagga, a routing daemon collection, needs some good rc.d scripts and testing. Unfortunately, not many crux users (at the moment) have an ability to test all that in heterogeneous environment. That doesn't mean nobody would use such tools if they were available in 'opt'. So, if someone is interested, lets make good & tested_in_real_env ports for contrib and some day we'll see advanced networking tools in opt. Hope it is not in conflict with KISS.
