This is > really a problem with utmp/wtmp, but takes the same approach as who(1). This should also fix a problem reported by Edward J. M. Brocklesby on IRC, with some bizzarre setup he was putting together (he's larne, poke him, and do it hard). I cannot recall if he submitted a PR or not, but one hopes that *someone* did, since it certainly affected a number of things (e.g. ftpd logins using the port# for the utmp/wtmp entries). Any thought of expanding the functionality in libc or libutil to generalise code that regards getting/opening the tty of a given entry, and so on? -- Juli Mallett <jmallett@FreeBSD.org> | FreeBSD: The Power To Serve Will break world for fulltime employment. | finger jmallett@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
