Hi,
The values in /etc/default/kannel aren't handled as expected. As long
as the variable is not unset, it will always be regarded as 'true'.
This is probably caused by the init-script only doing this:
test ! -z $START_WAPBOX && (
IMHO it should check if that variable is 1 and only then start that
service. The way it's done atm is confusing because setting 0 doesn't
make the service not start.
Kind regards
Hendrik Jaeger
