I have the feeling something is missing here. It's for the same reason there are no type=(!dir) files in any of the mtree files -- ignorance of mtree. It should work on every branch of FreeBSD already, to specify type=link. Works for me, at least. I modified plist so that when the mtrees actually gain that information, it will work again (that is, not list @dirrm for those symlinks); I was also ignorant to what mtree could do, because there were no examples of it being done! -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \'[ FreeBSD ]''''''''''\ <> green@FreeBSD.org \ The Power to Serve! \ Opinions expressed are my own. \,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,\
