as /dev/sdXe and use mount_msdos. /dev/sdXe is just a made up
disklabel that the machine makes to temporarily deal with it.

Hi List,
you sure know these little external USB-harddisks, often used for laptops
or basic backups. Like WD-Passport and Seagate Expansion and whatever
they name them.

some behaviour surprised me:

I restart the server - subdirectory /snort is gone
It would be good to have this, since snort's pidfile has trouble with
it when I restart snort. Also I dont want to be to generous with the
/var/run permissions.

Still wonder if I should try the NetBSD/amd64.
