Hi guys, I have just rebooted my machine, and immediately after boot I have run 'sysctl -a' as an usual user. Well, in 'kern.msgbuf' I have found the whole master.passwd file, with combinations of usernames/passwords. Isn't that a security threat? bogdan ---------------------------- iCom Media AG Kirchweg 36 Koln, 50858 Germany Phone: +49-(0)221-485-689-16 Fax : +49-(0)221-485-689-20 Mobile:+49-(0)173-906-46-01 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
