The reason's for that is very clear, if i keep my spwd.db loaded the access to it won't be a disk access, so this will speedup any forms of authentication... The reason is that i want to avoid SQL databases in some cases where the system database works better to me. I have calculated that a database amount of 3000 (+/-) users would need about 7.6MB of memory, what sounds very good to me... If there isn't a way to it, yet, that is something i would love to see when -CURRENT becomes -RELEASE... it's an idea :) Best Regards Peace []'z Eksffa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
