Hi,

linux does already support tcp-md5 checks for incomming connections, but freebsd not.

I would like to implement this feature into freebsd.
Any hints/wishes/considerations that I should consider?

Someone(tm) keeps threatening to do this every 9-12 months, but I've yet to see patches.
...

As a result of fixing tcp-md5 end of last year,

both of this (incoming validation + SPD integ) is on my TODO list on
position 10 (I am currently working on item 3) and there is more ipsec
work in the middle.

I also have tcp-md5 for IPv6 implementation on the same card.

I am willing to help or review patches in case someone wants to do it
now.
