Yup, this is why the source for nwamd and netcfgd is where it is. And to answer the next question: nwamd and netcfgd must be in /lib/inet, not /usr/lib/inet, because they have to be able to run before /usr is mounted (that is, filesystem/usr depends on a long chain of services that ultimately leads to a dependency on network/physical). -renee _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
