I didn't know nobody was already there either. They are only used by zfs, while the others were originally only sed for devices. > There is no definition for "nogroup" in sys/conf.h. > Would it be ok to add > #define GID_NOGROUP 65533 > to syy/conf.h? > (I know bde_at_ doesn't like expressing this as 65533, but that is what it is in /etc/group.) sys/conf.h already has GID_NOBODY but it is subtly different from GID_NOGROUP. It seems to be a bug that zfs uses nobody's gid instead of the gid nogroup which is used by no body. BruceReceived on Fri Apr 21 2017 - 10:56:31 UTC
