Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I am updating the description of intro(3) and have stumbled upon some challenges: #define EAUTH 80 /* Authentication error */ #define ENEEDAUTH 81 /* Need authenticator */ #define EOVERFLOW 84 /* Value too large to be stored in data type */ #define ECANCELED 85 /* Operation canceled */ I think I know what EOVERFLOW does, if one tries to put a certain number in an int declared variable which is greater than int can take it will generate an EOVERFLOW. Is EAUTH a basic uid<>password authentication failure, or is it broader or..? ECANCELED? Is this our basic CTRL-C? Thanks for any explanations on this part =) 'gards, --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven asmodai(at)wxs.nl The FreeBSD Programmer's Documentation Project Network/Security Specialist *BSD: Accept no limitations...
