I have a modified /usr/sbin/lrcfg.back.script which gives me a choice of
emailing it
back to may mail server, this way I never get the corrupted floppy problems of
old...
Below is the main part of what I do, if you want more I can email the whole
file to you
Bruce
--------- example of code --------------
rm $INCLUDE
rm $EXCLUDE
rm $TMP_EXCLUDE
if [ "$WTMP" = "ON" ]; then
#
# PSI Email the LRP modules back to PSI
#
echo
echo -n
echo -n "Email module back to PSI? (y/N) "
read YN
if [ ! "$YN" = "n" ] ; then
ticker &
echo -n "eMailing $PACKAGE.lrp Please wait: "
mv /tmp/$PACKAGE.lrp /tmp/ORIG_$PACKAGE.lrp
uuencode /tmp/ORIG_$PACKAGE.lrp $PACKAGE.lrp >
/tmp/$PACKAGE.lrp
# Lets build the email subject
SUBJECT="LRP $HOSTNAME $PACKAGE.lrp"
[ "$PACKAGE" = "psi" ] && SUBJECT="$SUBJECT $(cat
/etc/psi.version)"
[ "$PACKAGE" = "client" ] && SUBJECT="$SUBJECT $(cat
/etc/client.version)"
mail -s "$SUBJECT" -a /tmp/$PACKAGE.lrp [EMAIL PROTECTED] <
/dev/null
sleep 2
rm /tmp/$PACKAGE.lrp
mv /tmp/ORIG_$PACKAGE.lrp /tmp/$PACKAGE.lrp
killall ticker >/dev/null 2>&1
echo
echo -n
fi
