I don't believe that there is a security problem in doscmd. By the time that doscmd can be affected by an overflow, permissions have been re-set to the user's, with no dangerous file descriptors open. (That's not to say the buffer overflows shouldn't be fixed, of course.) Regards, --keith =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Keith Bostic bostic () bsdi com
