Yes, you're absolutely right. I just haven't looked into implementing generators so far. > If sockets.target is too late, then order it before that. man bootup > shows a synchronization point at sysinit.target before jobs for > sockets.target are even dispatched. I was already ordering before sockets.target, but the problem is that the other sockets are also ordered before sockets.target, so my unit isn't necessarily ordered before any of those socket units. I wasn't aware of the bootup manpage. That's incredibly helpful; thank you. I'll try ordering before a few more of those targets and see if I get anywhere. However, based on the bootchart, none of the targets appear before the first socket unit is activated. Paul
