I need to set up some virtual interface drivers on a netbsd box.  We need to
have a machine with an ethernet connection have multiple IP addresses.

I have some fairly rough kernel patches, but they appear to require quite a
bit of fiddling with.  Before I started trying to implement these patches, I
thought I'd check to see if there was a more formal release of these, or 
any patches that allow you to achieve this.

Regards,
  Keith Smith

PS: I haven't had much experience with NetBSD, so forgive me if I've missed
any major announcements on this topic.
