If the differences are not big, it may be simple to hack xattr.c in star. Note that I am currently short before release 1.5a71 which contains a bug fix in that file, so don't change it now. ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/alpha/ Also note that I like to see a platform independent xattr support. This may happen soon after more and more people implement NFSv4 which includes the Solaris way of extended attributes. http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-0691/6mgfmmdqv?a=view#indexterm-182 See openat() Jörg -- EMail:joerg@schily.isdn.cs.tu-berlin.de (home) Jörg Schilling D-13353 Berlin js@cs.tu-berlin.de (uni) schilling@fokus.fraunhofer.de (work) Blog: http://schily.blogspot.com/ URL: http://cdrecord.berlios.de/old/private/ ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/schily
