Right! But that's ok. Look at rules - I just nedd to know file name when file was opened. I was thinking to add to my ugly way catching rename(2) and changing cached file name, but this is really unnecessary. It's even better that file name isn't updated on rename(2). -- Pawel Jakub Dawidek UNIX Systems Administrator http://garage.freebsd.pl Am I Evil? Yes, I Am.
