On this point, there must be something fundamental about the Hurd's
architecture I don't understand. Why shouldn't it be possible to
just do this:
# settrans -fgap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i eth0 -a u.v.w.x -m ...
# settrans /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i eth1 -a u.v.y.z -m ...
to configure multiple 'net interfaces? This is (more of less) the
way I'd do it in some flavor *nix. Thanks :^)
