>Description:
	The ndis(4) man page is 12 months out of date - as the method
it describes to create the kernel module using ndiscvt(8) was obsoleted
12 months ago with the addition of ndisgen(8).

The related source changes are in HEAD and RELENG_6, and were MFC'd to
RELENG_5 about 12 months ago, just after the 5.4 fork.  Therefore it
would be good to get this change into FreeBSD 5.5 if it's not too late.

State-Changed-When: Fri Oct 13 11:30:35 UTC 2006 
State-Changed-Why:  
Slightly different version of your patch applied as the 
ndiscvt(8) utility has not been obsoleted, ndisgen(8) is 
just an easier to use method of interacting with ndiscvt(8). 
Thanks for the submission!
