System: NetBSD 3.0 (MYKERN) #2: Fri Feb 17 13:12:07 AKST 2006 /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/MYKERN i386
Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:
uname, logname, id in /usr/bin should be in /bin. when the root
partition is the only partition available, the user should be able
to run scripts which state that the "user" is root on a "NetBSD"
machine. FreeBSD is configured like that (if that matters :).
>How-To-Repeat:
not relevant.
>Fix:
move those 3 utilities to the root partition into /bin.
