This was kind of bizzare but it allowed you to run :controlled portals outside of chroot jails (as they existed years ago). I :actually got to use them about 6 years ago on FreeBSD 2.2 and antique :SVR4/386 systems. : :Cheers, :-Peter :-- :Peter Wemm - peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com; peter@netplex.com.au Bizarre... but how about giving inetd the capability to sit on a unix domain socket? Now *that* would be interesting. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
