Could be a good idea to have it in a separate file, considering that it's already longer than the current README.Debian and that it could grow further. I would advocate mentioning the separate file at some prominent spot in README.Debian though (the top?). The included xinetd config could also be placed in a separate file instead (in examples?) which then only needs to be copied to /etc/xinetd.d by the user. The same could then be done for an initscript (cf. bug #232584) I suppose.. > And do you think this documentation could be useful upstream, > too? Hm, possibly, if it's not too distribution-specific. There are tons of these on the net though, with varying quality. That's why I thought it'd be good if Debian just ships its own known-to-work one. Regards, Martin
