System: FreeBSD buffy.york.ac.uk 6.1-RC FreeBSD 6.1-RC #8: Fri May 5 16:37:33 BST 2006 root at buffy.york.ac.uk:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BUFFY i386

>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	The ndis(4) man page is 12 months out of date - as the method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.

>How-To-Repeat:
	N/A
