Can you please data-capture that bug and file it for him then. |

We really need to hear about hidden bugs like this. |

Write plaintext (or wiki markup), adding the XML is a fairly trivial |
| 15 |
transform. |

I've got some very complex network setups that I have documented and |
| 22 |
supported. My homedir has several of them from my own experience: |
| 23 |
http://dev.gentoo.org/~robbat2/conf.d-net/ |
| 24 |
Includes dual-homing, multi-homing, and HE.net IPv6 tunnels. |
| 25 |
I wrote a lot of the original bonding, vlan, mac-changer, bridging code |
| 26 |
in BL1. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Better documentation on how to set up the complex network configs would |
| 29 |
be great, but the net.example is too long already. |
