strlcpy and strlcat are quick and dirty band aids against buffer overflows. They suck because if a string is truncated, other bad things can happen.

Real fixes (without strl*) will come later. > I dislike OpenBSD because of several reasons but this list > is not the right place to discuss anything like this. Every operating system has strenghts and weakness. <insert your favorite OS here> is the best one because you know it very well, you feel confortable with it, and it fits your needs. OS wars are plenty stupid, especially in the opensource world. -- __ /*- Frank DENIS (Jedi/Sector One) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -*\ __ \ '/ <a href="http://www.PureFTPd.Org/";> Secure FTP Server </a> \' / \/ <a href="http://www.Jedi.Claranet.Fr/";> Misc. free software </a> \/ -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
