I prefer the solution debian - at least in some packages - uses by having a /etc/default/PACKAGE (or /etc/sysconfig/... if you prefer) file with a START_SCRIPTNAME shell variable. One of the advantages is that there are no configuration files shared by more than one package which would complicate autonomous system installation / configuration. -- JÃrg Billeter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
