So, in theory, an attempt to parse /etc/fstab would be an attempt to detect the type; however, my quick glance at the code showed no real parsing of fstab. But in my case, I followed to both the T and t flags, and just glanced at what was done would they not be specified. That was really as far as I got, and I attempted to use very generic language in case it only does one, or the other, or both. :) Reasonable? -- Tom Rhodes _______________________________________________ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" ----- End forwarded message -----
