Subject: Problems with 'df' and 'mount' with libc-4.3.3 and SLS
Date: 07 Apr 1993 01:03:07 GMT

I have just installed H.J.'s new libc-4.3.3 over the current
SLS with linux 99.pl6.

I pretty much follow the instructions in the announcement in c.o.l.a
and tried to fix the permissions so that a non-root uid could use the
new libraries.

Now 'df' reports:
        df: cannot read table of mounted filesystems
and 'mount' does not print the list of mount file systems.

Everything else, including networking, nfs mounts, and compiling seems
fine. The 'mtab' file is also being updated and is readable by anyone.

Is the libc.4.3.3 getmntent library call incompatible with the the linux.9pl6
kernel?
