Is there a canonical procedure for either the %post or the caller of rpm/yum to start any daemons that may have been installed? Doing a service foo start is a no-no in %post, as the install may be happening in a context that is not a normal install. But there must be a way to give users happy fluffy bunnies and working active software after they install a daemon in a "running machine" context. Pointers welcome - this is probably a FAQ but googling around I can't find anything that looks like the appropriate answer. cheers, m -- martin.langhoff@xxxxxxxxx martin@xxxxxxxxxx -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
