hello- i've been wondering what the advantages and disadvantages are w.r.t. organizing the run-level changing/initialization scripts in the current manner.
right now there are a number of scripts stored in init.d which are referenced by symbolic links from each of the rc*.d directories, right? what kind of advantages does this kind of approach have compared to having a single file for each run level (or even one file for all runlevels) describing which scripts to run (as well as the order to run them in)? besides having to 'lock' and parse a file describing what is needed for a single run level (which it seems could be dealt w/ by providing adequate routines that everyone uses), what are other demerits to taking the 'single-file' approach? (leaving out the fact that if one were to switch to such a scheme existing code might need to be modified) -sen -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
