Is it the way dependent services should be handled? I don't think that something special should be done for portmap/ypbind/nfs. I thought that the switch to upstart was in part motivated by this kind of feature. Otherwise said, I think that it is wrong to do it in the scripts, it should be done in the boot sequence configuration. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
