I assume you mean for diverting the ppp device to another file? I think holding the package is much better in this case. Bypassing the permission problem to let the upgrade succeed caused /etc/init/udev.conf to get reinstalled, which stopped him from booting. But d pkg-divert is another trick (new to me) that sounds like it'll come in useful. I'm getting the feeling that container administration (in debian/ubuntu) is going to require a bit of a new art :) Thanks! -serge ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
