hi,
	in my diskless setup i do the following:
from rc.diskless2:
	[...]
	mount_md() {
		/sbin/mount_mfs -s $1 -T qp120at -b 8192 -f 1024 dummy $2
	}
	[...]
	mount_md 8192 /conf/etc 0
	chkerr $? "MFS mount on /conf/etc"
	mount -t union /conf/etc /etc
	/bin/chmod 755 /etc

this worked fine, but sometime between Dec. and now something changed.

for non root user:
	ls /etc/mail
	ls: /etc/mail: Permission denied
if now i become root and do a ls /etc, then back to non root user, all is ok!
	ls /etc/mail works as expected.
btw, the 'Permission denied' is true for all directories in /etc except for
those created/copied/searched by rc before going multi-user.

im trying to back track to see when this broke, not easy :-(, and so far im not
sure if it's the server or client problem.
	
checking at the sources, i can't see major changes to unionfs nor mfs ...

any ideas?

	danny
