I'm not that familiar with the newer dependency boot sequencing, but I know someone who looked into this and seemed to think cron or atd *could* run before it. Looking at the scripts I have on my box, it seems like you may be right, assuming nothing else has a similar set of dependencies (namely, only $local_fs) which could hand off control to a user non-root user. However, my analysis doesn't cover every init script in every possible package... tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
