OTOH, you could designate a special [e]uid/[e]gid combination (eg. group == "nodanger" (very imaginative!)) to achieve this; this would also make it harder for any joe user to exploit this for his/her interest. -- Michael Schuster To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
