Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is how Linux, *BSD, Solaris, etc. all behave now. If you don't want your /dos to end up in your locate database, you tell locate to ignore /dos. Do we really want Hurd to behave that much differently in this respect? Shouldn't it default to the same thing with respect to locate as everything else? ---- Daniel Gryniewicz -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.fprintf.net
