From d739437207064cdcea8f9c81442284106cbcb67f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Jones Date: Thu, 17 May 2007 15:02:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV4]: Correct rp_filter help text. As mentioned in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5015 The helptext implies that this is on by default. This may be true on some distros (Fedora/RHEL have it enabled in /etc/sysctl.conf), but the kernel defaults to it off. Signed-off-by: Dave Jones Signed-off-by: David S.
