Date: Fri, 01 Sep 1995 13:43:32 -0700 Message-ID: <4453.809988212@time.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: current-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I had someone stick me in their wheel group recently and was surprised when I still didn't appear in wheel. Further investigation revealed that they'd stuck me in as: wheel:*:john,paul,george,ringo, jkh See that space? Well, that was enough to nip the group search in the bud. My question is, before I perhaps dive and try to fix it, is if it's a feature or a bug? Whitespace sensitivity is generally not a good thing in configuration files, but there are limits to what one should go through in order to deal with it, yes? Jordan
