Heyho hiro, Same argument as for surf applies here: If you can't fix the suckyness, you have to build a nice interface for it. If you would not abuse this segfault, I'd recommend you debug it and send in a patch to fix it, but I have access to a sucky LDAP setup as well, so I might be able to reproduce it myself… > I suggest this very platform-independent alternative interface (you can remove > special-casing for linux,bsd and such bullshit): > > slock < password-file This is an interesting idea. I would not use it for mainline (users don't want to change their password in many places), but you can push a patch to the wiki. --Markus
