That's alright, I really appreciate your attention. One thing though. Your init script discovery doesn't explain why sshd wouldn't restart (stop actually) when I was logged in does it? Given that, do you still think restarting is the way to go? I'm just trying to make sure I don't restart and still not have access. That would be bad because there is a crucial daemon running now that won't come up automatically. Please tell me what you think. - Grant -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
