The init file for SuSE _is_ available in CVS: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/ganglia/monitor-core/gmond/gmond.init.SuSE?view=markup
However, I didn't have time to look into how it gets used (if at all). I have been quite busy but this seems like an easy enough fix, so I may take a stab at it. But if somebody knows how the SuSE specific init script is supposed to be included in the tarball, please let me know. Cheers, Bernard ________________________________ From: Jason A.

Does SuSE support the Linux Standards Base Specification? One possibility that might make the same ganglia init scripts work on any distribution is to modify them to use /lib/lsb/init-functions instead. ~Jason ________________________________________________________________________
