And why FreeBSD security officer's email address always bounces my :mail? : :Thanks! My most recently posted patch will solve your problem. I am reworking it as per Ian's suggestions before I commit, and will also implement the same feature in rename() (for files). Then I will do a standard commit-to-current-wait-commit-to-stable sequence. But due to the complexity of the changes (even after simplifying them), it is going to be another few days before anything gets into -stable officially. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
