There's no reason to make this retry magic. The point of retry magic is to be able to capture parts of the calling process's local state: for example, the file descriptor table or the current root directory. What you are talking about should be a translator that, when you open those names, creates the necessary network connection. _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
