WE has been no help in this regard--they say essentially that if a program's origin is suspect at all, then it can't be distributed to others (under a binary sub-license, for example.) But they can't verify just where "fsck" fits in. People's comments would be greatly appreciated. Maybe I can get the name of someone official who knows the truth. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
