Makes sense - I think, if I understand correctly. So we'd now have 4 udev options: * Old "policykit" rule with ATTR and SYMLINK (w/ list) * Old no-policykit rule with SYSFS and GROUP (w/ list) * New no-policykit rule with ATTR and ID_REMOTE_CONTROL (w/ glob syntax) * New no-policykit rule with ATTR and GROUP (w/ glob syntax?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Minimize network downtime and maximize team effectiveness.
