 you'll need the following options as well...
 
     CONFIG_DECNET_ROUTER (to be able to add/delete routes)
-    CONFIG_NETLINK (to allow rtnetlink)
-    CONFIG_RTNETLINK (for communication with the kernel routing layer)
     CONFIG_NETFILTER (will be required for the DECnet routing daemon)
+
+    CONFIG_DECNET_ROUTE_FWMARK is optional

+Don't turn on SIOCGIFCONF support for DECnet unless you are really sure
+that you need it, in general you won't and it can cause ifconfig to
+malfunction.
