Hi Dan,

I was the one that figured out the problem with the slimserver startup
script (the $0 business for --daemon).  Figures I may be the one to
figure out the other Core5 issues.  That's cool.

I can't fix http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1906.  That's a
SuSE problem, and I don't know squat about that ...

I think the problem with both issues on Fedora Core5 is the way you're
creating the account.  Without -m (or -M), useradd says that we look at
/etc/login.defs to create the home directory.  On Fedora Core5, this
says "YES, CREATE HOME DIR", but you also create that manually.  That
may or may not be the problem (unsure).

The problem that I'm having will be fixed by adding "-s
/sbin/nologin".

I'm willing to take a stab on both of these, install FC5 on an old box,
and be sure that my patched RPM installs on FC5, and then send you the
patches.  My only question: If I already have a separate .spec file
(and an .rpm file), what magic incarnation do I need to use my .spec
file?  Or, if I can't do that, what magic do I need to build a new .rpm
file given an old .rpm file and a new .spec file?

Thanks ...
