Is schg not works there? Actually, I think I was overstating a bit. You can't set UFS file flags on an NFS volume, but they should work fine if already set on the server and /usr is mounted by a client. What will break is trying to do an installworld onto a remote NFS volume, or installworld within a jail, since in order for that to succeed you have to tell it not to set file flags, and that will leave you with a local root exploit on the installed system. > > arbitrary users from reading/modifying the UUCP spool files. >=20 > It is bad design of UUCP, it is not our problem.
