A friend of mine at sun apparently has the ear of a marketing person with the pull to get this bug fixed. He needs examples of commercial OSes which don't have this bug. We only use freebsd here, so can't give him examples, but if folks could email me with the commercial OSes they know about that don't have this bug that would be great. thanks. -- Sameer Parekh Voice: 510-986-8770 C2Net FAX: 510-986-8777 The Internet Privacy Provider http://www.c2.net/ sameer@c2.net
