-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- I was reading the sysctl(8) man page and saw references to opaque variables but no explanation of what these are. It did mentioned that such information is retrieved by ps, systat, netstat and other special purpose programs so I am guessing that the opaque data is just data that is not displayed as plain text? Since I am probably way off (I normally am :-)), I was hoping someone could enlighten me. Thanks! - -Jason -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com>; iQEVAwUBO+FNVJXw4bNLLNrbAQF2Uwf+IvXPidfX5YGV9BSqSDsHSO4aY+KGxq7d xeQ/Tq26p53MiQHLOyPsH/yqunOZc1HKjwtOHh9w5RK9qrlS/VyY+RhDs5jiFTIO LvaCXzQtaMRwBqSBk5C5f+KICrwgjLiMdsbwoL8CWoTgoHYOCeuGbGr5HHNoeO9o JKMa4wRjs3FmL7uUPogn87TuWp0ktLOA2KejUbp/42VAjGQBR1w76u+b26S6hIaL 6VMw2TXCttNrAzlGiIyB3X88fmq9RsU+yWAD15UhjKRhmmO5Fk2a+v4TltMAxUEx qO0F85GmYoyIoxc8snGAZDncMhjNyNGsxtuK7277/ufY1Ts95hFk4A=3D=3D =3DkGMu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
