I've taken another look at it, what I thought was a version incompatibility is actually a typo. I was trying to get "@restart" to work and it should have been "@reboot" (it is correct in 1run.sh). On my box, the service user can use cron (as the user was created via the rpm), and "@reboot" works too. The wget is unneccesary except that the installer places sha1test.jar in "bin/" when the update.sh expects it to be in "."; so I expect all freenet installations to have redundant sha1test.jar files. -- Robert Hailey _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list [email protected] http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
