Almost true. We do have a consistent system for it, it's just that it's pure VapourWare, and therefore is neither easy nor usable. The manpage for invoke-rc.d talks at some length about this thing called policy-rc.d, which is designed for precisely this kind of problem. Only trouble is it doesn't exist. Crazy. Maybe I'll create policy-rc.d before the year is done. The current situation is truly astounding. Drew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
