Look for other solutions to your problem, or branch freebsd into some new "ErkBSD", and let that bsd have argument lists limited only by machine resources. -- --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
