Yes... Unfortunately that's what I get for typing it manually and being  
distracted at the time. :-)

I figured I would end up putting that in rc.conf as a temporary fix, but  
maybe that's just the long term solution. It seems so odd to me that the  
sysctl change doesn't automatically cause the ACCEPT_RTADV option to show  
up for re0, but it does for vboxnet0. Perhaps there should be a cleaner  
way to do this in rc.conf like how we do ifconfig_re0="DHCP" ?


Thanks,


Mark
