Oh, yes nbd-*client* (duh). I think there before going into the ioctl we should simply mask off all signals we don't want to process, which would I think be everything except those designed to kill the process. IE we should mask off HUP etc. too, just in case someone foolishly sends it one. -- Alex Bligh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Own the Future-Intel(R) Level Up Game Demo Contest 2013 Rise to greatness in Intel's independent game demo contest.
