The "secure" mode disables log files, but it also changes several other behaviours, so you may not find it to be an improvement. The code supports changing those "secure" features separately, but only by editing the source; if you go that way, it will probably be much easier to use the ports version of the program instead of the base system's. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
