What _really_ happens is that that the test uses 'sysctl -a' to get all of the available fields, checks to see if one of those 3 fields is present, and compares its value to the string "1". But after careful checking, I think I've found the problem. It looks like the bootstrap script isn't doing things differently for 32-bit-only Intel machines on 10.5/10.6 like it should. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
