Um, no. I'm just fixing the "dbm:" flavor. "int:", "prg:", "rnd:", and "txt:" would remain. :) > (by the way: use the APR-UTIL functions for it, rather than SDBM).

It already is such a layer, if I understand what you're saying. apr_dbm lets you choose which flavor you want: sdbm, gdbm, or db. Of the ones it detects on your system, it picks one as a default in case you just don't care. I have all three, and it picks SDBM as the default on my system. My only concern is that someone will have an existing configuration that uses RewriteMap ... dbm:... and will have a dbm database that's some other flavor than the one APR-util picks by default (say, SDBM), and it will stop working until they change their config to be more specific. --Cliff -------------------------------------------------------------- Cliff Woolley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Charlottesville, VA
