Lines: 13 Message-ID: <2j418c$2co@Mercury.mcs.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: mercury.mcs.com It seems that FreeBSD (1.0e) doesn't have O_SYNC (SunOS does :), so I am basicly stuck trying to open a file as a named pipe. I checked the man pages but was really taken nowhere. the closest I got is specifying O_NDELAY. I see that mkfifo(1) exists but is under development. I guess I can check the mkfifo sources (as I will ;-) and see how they did it but hoped someone has the solution allready (it's allways better to waste someone else's time right?). thanX Nik -- Nikola Malenovic, malenovi@mcs.com
