Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

bool "IPX: Full internal IPX network"
|
|
depends on IPX
|
|
---help---
|
|
Every IPX network has an address that identifies it. Sometimes it is
|
|
useful to give an IPX "network" address to your Linux box as well
|
|
(for example if your box is acting as a file server for different
|
|
IPX networks: it will then be accessible from everywhere using the
|
|
same address). The way this is done is to create a virtual internal
|
|
"network" inside your box and to assign an IPX address to this
|
|
network. Say Y here if you want to do this; read the IPX-HOWTO at
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto> for details.
|
|
|
|
The full internal IPX network enables you to allocate sockets on
|
|
different virtual nodes of the internal network. This is done by
|
|
evaluating the field sipx_node of the socket address given to the
|
|
bind call. So applications should always initialize the node field
|
|
to 0 when binding a socket on the primary network. In this case the
|
|
socket is assigned the default node that has been given to the
|
|
kernel when the internal network was created. By enabling the full
|
|
internal IPX network the cross-forwarding of packets targeted at
|
|
'special' sockets to sockets listening on the primary network is
|
|
disabled. This might break existing applications, especially RIP/SAP
|
|
daemons. A RIP/SAP daemon that works well with the full internal net
|
|
can be found on <ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/ncpfs/>.

If you don't know what you are doing, say N.
