Hello All,

Before starting to ask my question, I would like to apologize about asking a silly question. Mostly, i always try to find answers by reading, searching, digging, etc. However, i really couldnt find a proper answer for my question.

My question is about l2tp/pptp drivers in kernel. pptp driver is in /drivers/net. But, l2tp driver is in /net I want to know why they reside in different paths? What did i miss?

typically, what you find under /net is code for general networking *protocols*, while drivers/net contains actual device drivers for physical devices. sometimes, the split is not perfect. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
