CVS commit: src



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   wrstuden
Date:           Tue Mar 16 21:52:35 UTC 1999

Modified Files:
        src/sbin/newfs: mkfs.c newfs.8
Log Message:
Modify newfs so that the root node (and lost+found dir, if created)
of the new fs has uid.gid equal to the euid.egid of the process
which made it. This change permits users who have write access to
a device (say a floppy) to create a filesystem that, when mounted,
they have write access to.

This change closes PR bin/5990 from jbernard%ox.mines.edu@localhost, and is 
also the
change requested in PR bin/6276 from "Charles M. Hannum" 
<mycroft%netbsd.org@localhost>
