There may be other limits, such as in various versions of NIS. > Thank you for all your helps and ideas :) I'm not sure I understand what you're doing, so I don't have any real advice, but I don't see why 128 characters would be that hard to deal with. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
