stat is called to get uid and exact permissions of a temporary configuration file which has just been created. Of course it is no problem to check for stat's existence and act appropriately if it isn't there. So my statement "cannot be used" is in fact only true for the current version which doesn't do any check. However, I would still be interested if there's a simple method for a script to find out which directories/partitions will be mounted when. Thank you, Frank -- Frank Küster, Biozentrum der Univ.
