If you post the section(s) of code in question, then you'll probably elicit some responses. PIPE_BUF is a POSIX defined minimum, so you might grep for sections of code that contain fpathconf(*, _PC_PIPE_BUF) to determine if the programmers took this into consideration. At least you'll be able to

This may be partially related to the fact that I believe the system generates those files automatically from /etc/master.passwd. So if you change the perms on /etc/passwd, then when the system comes along and regenerates the files from /etc/master.passwd, it would change the permissions during tha

Hey, I'm using FreeBSD on various servers for many time now, and there is something that always bothered me. It is related to /etc/passwd and /etc/pwd.db permissions. I have custom (0640) permissions on these files. However, each time a user changes his/her password, the system will reset the pas

In all fairness I'd like to say that Nate put me in touch with someone to commit the work. At about the same time I discovered a rather annoying bug (since fixed), and I haven't followed back up. For those who would like to try it out I just submitted a sparse tree patch against the developmen
