I'm tackling iptables for a while longer. That file was for intregrating into a old version of Fedora. I doubt it still applies to the recent versions as udev is now included in FC3-test. Actually all distros now seem to support udev already. So I recommend just upgrading to the latest version of your favorite one and using the verison of udev that's included in it. As /dev management is pretty tricky to get just right in the startup scripts, I'd rely on your distro to get it correct. And if you're using a distro that doesn't support udev in it's latest 2.6 release, please let me know and I'll go bug them :) > I hate it when packages have their 'make install' install scripts in my / > etc/rc.d directory.

What distro are you using that the included /etc/inid.d/ file doesn't work properly for? thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
