(Improved version, sans confusing typo.) A new version of sysvinit is being prepared for release to experimental.
1. We'll omit /run from this since debate about it continues unabated. 2. One thing I would like to do in this release is to remove the dynamically created/deleted /etc/nologin file from the root filesystem. It is proposed that initscripts create and delete the nologin flag file in /var/lib/initscripts/ and that /etc/nologin become a symbolic link to /var/lib/initscripts/nologin. Then the administrator then has these options: No-login mode at boot until boot complete: DELAYLOGIN=yes No-login mode never: rm -f /var/lib/initscripts/nologin ; DELAYLOGIN=no No-login mode always: touch /var/lib/initscripts/nologin ; DELAYLOGIN=no Anyone see any problems with this scheme? Any better ideas? -- Thomas Hood -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
