I feel that there is no need to check and read /etc/{passwd,group} on every getpw* and getgw* functions. Is it enough frequent that the check is held only in internal_getlogin? If so, read_etc_{passwd,group} don't need to support multi threads and can be more simple. ____ | AIST Kazuhiro Fujieda <fujieda AT jaist DOT ac DOT jp> | HOKURIKU Center for Information Science o_/ 1990 Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology
