That will be a very clever script. It will have to read and understand the changes, the readme, and be aware of new config file options or modifications to existing options, and it will have to be adaptive to any changes the vendor deems necessary. In my shop we call that proccess "the admin", but if somebody can replace that with a script I'll be very interested. Which platforms to you anticipate supporting and will you offer cvs updates and snapshots? I need to use ksh. I will use bash if absolutely needed but not tsh. Perl is right out, of course, because that introduces the whole cpan layer and expands the effort to keep those modules current. I assume you will offer a mail list or two for support, and enough bandwidth to handle traffic spikes when new versions are released. Meanwhile, I'll: download read configure build read hand off to cfengine have a beer repeat as necessary The most time consuming part of that cycle in man-hours is the beer segment. Really. dp _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
