By the way, how do I remove a translator? `settrans /mnt' removes the passive[1] translator on /mnt `settrans -a /mnt' removes the active[2] translator, but not the passive translator. This means that the next time you access /mnt, a fresh translator is started.. Other interesting options are `-g' (ask the active translator go away (nicely) when you set the passive translator) and `-f' (force the active translator to go a way). See `settrans --help' for more information. Mark [1] The passive translator is recorded in the filesystem, and specifies what program becomes the active translator when you access the node. [2] The active translator is the program actually running on top of the node to provide its contents.
