I understand.,, but what happens about /etc/init.d shell scripts (I mean the ones which start, stop & restart servers) ? Would be possible to get more info about the way of manage them ? That is very operating system dependant, gNewSense does it one way, Fedora another, Ubuntu yet another way. In general, it is a bad idea to install anything in $(sysconfdir), since files might have been modified by the system admin. It is always safest, and best, to leave configuration files to be installed manually. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
