I have to wonder what the purpose of the change is... the version string has no significance for application compatibility. It is in a way my signature on the code, and I'd very much appreciate if you could just leave the current implementation alone. The thing that looks like an email address isn't, by the way. It's supposed to be the login name of the person that built the kernel and the host name of the machine on which it was built. It isn't easily available at run time, and it seemed more appropriate to hardcode it as "des@freebsd.org" than as "root@localhost". DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=F8rgrav - des@des.no
