This won't work most of the time because a lot of programs are not started by me as user. For example npviewer.bin core dumps a lot because of bad flash.

changing place of .core files
Normally when a program crashes, it places a .core file in the homefilesystem. Is there a way of changing the filesystem where FreeBSD places it's core dumps? Thanks in advance, Marco -- Rule #7: Silence is not acquiescence. Contrary to what you may have heard, silence of those present is not necessarily consent, even the reluctant variety. They simply may sit in stunned silence and figure ways of sabotaging the plan after they regain their composure. ___ 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"
