Thanks. I am still stuck on whether "uname -i" is the correct way to publish "I'm virtualized"--won't any program that calls uname(2) get an outcome that should be irrelevant? (That is, shouldn't you allow them to hit the missing or reduced-capability feature, rather than using a coarse indicator? It's the "uname -r" versus feature argument, just along a different axis.) - Stephen -- Stephen Hahn, PhD Solaris Kernel Development, Sun Microsystems stephen.hahn at sun.com http://blogs.sun.com/sch/
