The question I have is whether there is a "standard" for the group portion of these functions? In scanning through the header files on the system, it appears there are some overlaps.... Any input on how to select the 'best' or 'correct' group is most welcome... -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
