honestly, i don't think it's worth the effort. all you have to do is add a "skip-networking" statement to my.cnf to turn it off, and the amount of work and code it would take to manage a file as complicated as my.cnf in a postinst script would gain most people very little, at the expense of our time and possibly breaking things for others. sean --
