Looks like that :( But actually any script language is like any other. Lisp is different matter :) I presume, creating file /usr/security/msec/level.local and putting there set_security_conf('RPM_CHECK', 'no') should do the trick. For all levels :( But yes, it needs more user-friendly configuration or at least good documentation how to set these basic variables. -andrej I don't like > the idea of automatically rewritting files in /etc behind the > user's back. > > Denis > _______________________________________________ > Denis Pelletier > Étudiant au doctorat > sciences économiques, Université de Montréal
