I didn't follow the above.. Is it build-time use only or does it end up in a conf file in the package? Is that a path that gets used as-is or a prefix? If it is used as-is, how does it avoid conflicts when multiple users/processes are using it at the same time? -- Jyri J. Virkki - jyri.virkki at sun.com - Sun Microsystems
