Wouldn't this be a BLFS issue? It's a good idea, but I don't use dhcp myself.

Again, BLFS, but I agree in principle. OTOH you may want to keep an ssh session active when restarting sshd. I suppose this could always be done with an ssh session to a non-standard port, but it warrants a bit more discussion. > There have been a few other minor modifications as well. > > Obviously, with that many changes to the structure of the scripts, I > don't expect them to be merged upstream.

What should be done? The book says: "Computer instructions may be extracted from the book under the MIT License." As far as I'm concerned the scripts are public domain and don't need a license. Why don't you post your scripts so we can look at them in more detail. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
