"fixed"? gimme a break. disallowing mounts at securelevel 2 fixes exactly what? nothing, since anybody runs securelevel 1 anyway, and there nothing is "fixed". lokk at the restrictions in securelevel 2. it's just not an option. this non-issue is not fixable. -- BS Web Services, http://www.bsws.de/ OpenBSD-based Webhosting, Mail Services, Managed Servers, ...
