Sorry, i should have been more precise in my first mail. GNU find for example uses that value. The wrong (too small) st_nlink value was the cause for find not searching in the subdirectories of a shadowfs. Now i made the st_nlink of a directory in shadowfs be the sum of the st_nlink values of the underlying directories; find works. But in the case that there are directory entries with duplicate names in the underlying directories, this value is to high. So, that is acceptable? moritz -- Moritz Schulte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.chaosdorf.de/moritz/ "In short: just say NO TO DRUGS, and maybe you won't end up like the Hurd people." - Linus Torvalds.
