Hello, I have two questions: 1. I understand that 'make world' builds my entire system from the source tree. In the process, it obviously sets the file modes on everything it builds. Is there a way I can run a portion of 'make world' that would just change all the file modes of every file it would normally build, without having to fully recompile the system? 2. I would like to build a statically linked, stand alone version of /usr/bin/tar with full functionality. You know, like the executables you find in /stand. I have the full 2.2.2-RELEASE source files, and a complete system. Can I just set LDFLAGS="some set of flags for ld" in tar's Makefile to do this? If so, what might that set be? If not, what else should I do? Thank You, JM ------- > Jeffrey M. Metcalf > United Technologies Research Center > metcaljm@utrc.utc.com > (860) 610-7576 > >
