I had thought of this, but then I thought of a setup where /usr is mounted from a different filesystem that the root filesystem, and this alias is executed by the superuser. There is no real way to recover all the information of the original file, since i-node, modification and access times, etc. are meta-data some of which will be changed and lost in some way during a move. Anyway, I think this has gone faar away from the original thread, on "stupid" users and what else. /me stops To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
