   What's the state of urndis?  I don't see any "BUGS"-section in the
man-page which I interpret as good news.

   I looked at the rndis driver in Linux a few years ago; the developers
seemed pretty displeased with the spec.  In summary: "We followed the
spec, it didn't work, so we snooped the line, saw some undocumented
stuff, we tried to add those and suddenly it worked but we don't know
why.  Don't use this driver in production.".

   Anyone using the urndis driver in NetBSD on a semi-daily basis?  Is
it stable?
