I don't really feel strongly, I just think it would be cleaner to have it separated out. Alternatively perhaps /etc/security could be moved to /etc/periodic/daily/<x>.security, since it's just another daily script really. But that would mean a repo-copy and this probably isn't important enough to justify that, so let's leave it be. People are probably used to running '/etc/security' standalone as well. >> Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D >=20 > BTW, congrats on your commit bit ! Thanks. I took advantage of it to commit a question to the FAQ which James (on the cc list) asked recently: "what is a repo-copy?", let me know if it answers your question well enough.
