Hi. Just my $0.02. I hope you don't decide to get rid of hard links. We do a lot of stuff that requires hard links as a result of custom coded databases. I'm not familliar with the internals as I did not write it, however I am told our system can be ported over to OpenBSD with less trouble than fixing whatever requires the hard links. FreeBSD has served us well and I hope we don't have to abandon it :( It seems to me that the changes to rm/cp would be the smartest route because it wouldn't break anything and would seemingly address most of the issues brought up. -Michael To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
