For example: a program (e.g. shellcode) could load a binary off the wire and execute it without first creating a copy on disk; or, a program could extract a binary from an encrypted data store and execute it without creating a plain text image on the disk. Userland exec is useful for any situation where it is preferable not to create a file on the disk when executing a program." cheers, twkonefal -- Tomasz Konefal Systems Administrator Command Post and Transfer Corp. 416-585-9995 x.349
