Yes, seems to me it would be a patch with upstream, not Devuan. Most likely this whole thing pointless since AD and SAMBA would break because of changing it. :/ _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
