Description

Having built a small compile farm on a 10base2 network, I suspected that ethernet collisions were the main source of contention. This program implements a simple token bus protocol, wrapping the 10base2 network behind OpenBSD's tun device, thus relieving the compile farm of packet collisions (at the expense of a bit more cpu load).
