This has been changed a while ago: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sbin/mount_msdosfs/Makefile.diff?r1=1.17&r2=1.18 and the only mount_msdos binary that I have in my system is a rather stale copy from Oct 9 2002 (boy, I need to clean up this installation one of these days): giorgos@gothmog[00:11]/home/giorgos$ ls -lT /sbin/mount_msdos* -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel - 183776 Oct 9 15:45:24 2002 /sbin/mount_msdos -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel - 378172 Jan 22 18:47:00 2003 /sbin/mount_msdosfs To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
