Grumpf... that is more an artifact of that I quickly (since lots of people were complaining) tried to come up with a "ultra-low risk" for the process name issue described in http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6793120 ("pkill fails on native and sn1 branded zones") - that's why I wrapped the script simply in a binary (which we knew would be safe from the testing point-of-view) instead of rewriting the script in binary code (which would've be much more risky since new bugs could've crept in). ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;)
