Hi
I just installed FreeBSD 5.1 release and ran a "find / -perm +4000" and
"find / -perm +2000". My question is: are any of these files used by the
system, in a way that prevents me from making them non-executable to the

Btw why is /usr/sbin/pp

Hi again
Would it be possible to have this configuration and not having the
system fail (because of lacking rights or something):
/tmp and /var/tmp noexec (I know /tmp has to be execuable to make
world)
/varnosuid (what about even noexec?)
/var/mail noexe

Hi,
Thank you so much for your constructive notes. We do feel confident to
merge some parts into the mainline code. Other parts may require further
discussion:

i recently found messages about problems with the if_wi driver in 5.1 (it worked
in 5.0-release).
i have a patch for this. it brings back missing features (wep, authmode etc). i
could not test it for every possible case but it works fine for my network.
