Hi All,

I am working on netbsd 1.6.1 version. My requirement is to remove the
loopback interface from the system.
Actually my concern here is on removing the loopback interafce from the
system, what all implication can i get
in the system..

Also one of the implication is that data traffic generated from the same
machine for itself All such traffic get routed thru the lo0 in normal
cases,
what changes will be required for this.

regards
- amit
