Clement Ross <cl...@he...> asked: >What is FHS? FHS=Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. The FHS defines conventions for file & directory placement. The FHS is an update to the previous Linux Filesystem Structure standard (FSSTND); most of the changes were based on lessons learned from Linux, BSD, and System V systems, so it's intentionally broader than Linux. You can learn more from: http://www.pathname.com/fhs (though at this moment the server seems down). The FHS is part of the "Free Standards Group" formerly known as the Linux Standard Base (http://www.freestandards.org). This is a Good Thing (TM). I recommend using the FHS in my book "Secure Programming for Linux and Unix HOWTO" (http://www.dwheeler.com/secure-programs). -- --- David A. Wheeler dwh...@id... |
