I'm not sure which Unix you've been running for the past five or more years, but a lot of stuff doesn't live in the file system name space under various BSD derived systems, nor do the networking types believe it belongs there. IMHO neither does a process handle, nor a semaphore, and don't even talk to me about "named pipes" as an IPC mechanism. (Gee, I guess reasonable men might differ on what belongs in the name space ;-) Marty -- Martin Fouts UUCP: ...!pyramid!garth!fouts (or) uunet!ingr!apd!fouts ARPA: apd!fouts@ingr.com PHONE: (415) 852-2310 FAX: (415) 856-9224 MAIL: 2400 Geng Road, Palo Alto, CA, 94303 Moving to Montana; Goin' to be a Dental Floss Tycoon. - Frank Zappa Volume-Number: Volume 21, Number 83
