I'll probably do so (referencing also the previous ones) once I finish testing this; the downside is that I may not get a chance to plunk a few straight solid hours into it until this weekend (darn that "paying work" stuff!), so we may have to find new realms of the subject to flam^Wdebate until then, just to keep the ol' adrenaline flowing. Regardless of the outcome of the passwd issue, I think the pid_*() functions in libutil will be useful for other things that do those kind of functions. Just glancing at my /var/run, I can see cron, inetd, mountd, moused, and syslogd, just among the stuff in our base system that isn't contrib/-ish (like named, sshd, ntpd, etc). -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
