It's not that weird. Quoting from "man 5 attr": Attribute names are zero-terminated strings. The attribute name is always specified in the fully qualified namespace.attribute form, eg. user.mime_type, trusted.md5sum, system.posix_acl_access, or security.selinux. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_file_attributes FreeBSD also requires that arbitrary xattr's be in the user. namespace. I suspect this should be hidden in the xattr library. -- Stuart Jansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Guru Labs, L.C.
