I am not familiar with Mac OS X details. But isn't Mac OS X based
upon BSD? BSD does not have a /private. I searched the web briefly
for Mac OS X and sudo but did not see any mention of a /private
directory. But that does not prove that it does not exist, just that
I did not see anyone mentioning it. I saw a lot of people talking
about using sudo on the Mac though. It appears that is the default
superuser access mechanism. Which seems like a good thing.
Anyone on the list know about Mac OS X and sudo and willing to comment?
