chrony from etch (and lenny) has the following in its postinst: | if [ -z "$2" ] ; then | | # As this a new install generate a key. Remove any keyfile left by a failed ins | tall. | rm -rf /etc/chrony/chrony.keys | KEYFILE=`tempfile -m 640 -n /etc/chrony/chrony.keys` | PASSWORD=`head -c 8 /dev/urandom | tr '\0-\377' 'a-zA-Z0-9a-zA-Z0-9a-zA-Z0-9a-zA-Z0-9@@@@####'` | echo "1 $PASSWORD" > $KEYFILE It then uses ucf at the end of the file. But since I'm not a DD, I don't know how much not policy-compliant and how far away from best practices it is. :) Greetings, Mike Dornberger -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
