I must admit that I didn't read the paper that thoroughly , but I was at the presentation. The only thing they missed was `prior art'. We did implemented the exact same functionality (but with other names) for our Krb4 distribution, and I beleive that those functions got imported into OpenBSD before they added strl* to libc. :-) /Johan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
