Definitely a typo. It should be $TZ and that would result in the last line you wrote. > Situation 2: > > After modifying /etc/rc.d/init.d/setclock, the instructions say to add > the symlinks > > # ln -s ../init.d/setclock /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K45setclock && > # ln -s ../init.d/setclock /etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K45setclock > > Each of these symlinks contain 'K45setclock' I can't remember if the > K45 refers to a priority or run levels.

Everything in the name (besides the S or K) is just for ordering since the script running them is going through alphabetically (or lexically or whatever that word is). So the scripts needed to run first have lower numbers. It's OK to have scripts with the same numbers. You could change the number if you're certain you want it before or after random, but it probably isn't important. I have K30dbus and K30sshd and haven't had an issue with that. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
