Sure thing. It's been in Fedora/Red Hat for some time, but I guess I should have known better than to assume that everyone would be familiar with it. :) Here's a link to the home page: http://www.fastcoder.net/software/chkconfig/ To quote the above: "Chkconfig is a tool for managing the collection of symbolic links found in the /etc/rc[0-6].d directories, on System V derived UNIX systems. It saves the system administrator from the tedium of manually managing the scores of symbolic links." Since this particular package is based on Fedora, I'm not sure how portable it is for LFS, but the concept, really, is what I'm after. I don't have a definitive list of pros and cons yet. I'll be looking into it for the LFS system I'm building now, and I'll be able to speak on that more soon. In the meantime I was just curious if this was a concept others were interested in. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
