Do you mean sending the credentials info in the data part? Well, for that there are no checks, are there? OK, I'll move the check to recvmsg.c then. No problem:) We can also do a full re-authentication at the receive end, should that be added too? (With a check at the receive end faulty information might be sent, right?) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-hurd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
