Ultimatively Thomas wanted a make'ish init setup, I think. Roland already answered the status quo, but let me add that the sysvinit author/maintainer didn't like my Hurd setup of the package and sent me back to split sysvinit into sysv and initscripts. A move I had not the time to do from the stuff I managed to prepare. [1] However, you can find my old try in my alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian or contrib/marcus, I think. I can also give you my newer version. But you can also simply add the call to ssh to /libexec/rc for now. Thanks, Marcus [1] if you want to help with this you must be a master in Debian packaging, especially complex dependency issues to get a smooth upgrade on a linux system. -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
