has the same gets bug as fingerd....
pasc
You're right. It also has another bug. The loop where it builds its
argument list doesn't check if it writes past the end of av[]. fingerd
doesn't have this bug, because its loop is slightly different (this is
not obvious unless you stare at the code for a while).
Fortunately, writed isn't part of the standard 4.3 distribution...
