Harbormaster completed remote builds in B15838: Diff 40824.Mar 27 2018, 10:54 PM

I did this in my tree about four years ago.

I was also tangentially responsible for getting TR into the tree in the first place for Kevin Day who was doing stuff for Bally in-bar gaming units. This was in the 90's, iirc. He stopped doing that, and the gaming units have been mostly retired.

To be honest, I may be confusing arcnet and TR.

sys/netinet/ip_carp.c
1542 ↗	(On Diff #40824)	I just wonder what person tested CARP on token-ring. (More likely this code was never tested)
sys/netinet6/in6.c
1974 ↗	(On Diff #40824)	I'm sure IPv6 over TR had a lot of testing as well.. :-P
