It's been like this as long as I've been using FreeBSD, so I'm not sure, but I thought I'd bring it up in case it's a bug that can be fixed. The file /etc/namedb/make-localhost is a shell script for creating the /etc/namedb/localhost.rev file automagically. It works nicely, except that the file has not execute permissions as installed. I just verified this on a clean 4.4-RELEASE install, but I haven't checked with the latest -STABLE yet. Is this a minor bug, or is there a security (or other) reason that this script doesn't have execute permissions?? -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
