so? the only place to solve this is obviously writing a proxy. wether that is in kernel or not doesn't change a shit. well, except for the tiny detail that a security problem in your userland proxy doesn't give the attacker remote root... and it easier to write too. -- Henning Brauer, BS Web Services, http://bsws.de [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unix is very simple, but it takes a genius to understand the simplicity.
