I have seen this line a lot lately. It isn't in FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE, is
it? My /usr/src/sbin/mount/mount.c says:
/*
* If the mount was successfully, and done by root, tell mountd the
* good news. Pid checks are probably unnecessary, but don't hurt.
*/
if (rval == 0 && getuid() == 0 &&
(mountdfp = fopen(_PATH_MOUNTDPID, "r")) != NULL) {
if (fscanf(mountdfp, "%d", &pid) == 1 &&
pid > 0 && kill(pid, SIGHUP) == -1 && errno != ESRCH)
err(1, "signal mountd");
(void)fclose(mountdfp);
}
getuid() == 0 looks a lot like root-only to me... Or am I missing
something?

If there is a here-after,
then there are much more people dead than alive.
Even that much more that the number of living people
is insignificant in comparison to the dead ones.
Thus it is safe to say that we don't exist.
