We either need to differentiate between Solaris and HPUX readdir_r or ignore the return value of that system call, as the semantics differ. Solaris return non-zero on success whereas HPUX returns zero. This could be achieved by setting entry->d_name[0] to NUL before the system call and assume that it failed, if the system call does not change the contents of d_name. - Sascha Experience IRCG http://schumann.cx/ http://schumann.cx/ircg
