Date: 1 Mar 90 01:35:44 GMT From: hp-pcd!hpcvlx!ben@hplabs.hp.com (Benjamin Ellsworth) Every UN*X system that I've used allows the programmer to create a file, and then unlink it from the file system. As long as it is not closed, it exists known only by the program until it exits. (The Morris worm exploited this behavior.) When the program calls exit(), the system calls clean everything up very nicely. This doesn't work too well on NFS filesystems... ames >>>>>>>>> | Robert Krawitz <rlk@think.com> 245 First St. bloom-beacon > |think!rlk (postmaster) Cambridge, MA 02142 harvard >>>>>> .
