Looking at a Redhat system here, i find that the script /sbin/zfcpconf.sh reads the configuration file /etc/zfcp.conf. This script is run from udev when the zfcp module is loaded in the kernel: # grep -r zfcpconf.sh /etc/ /etc/udev/rules.d/56-zfcp.rules:KERNEL=="zfcp_cfdc", RUN+="/sbin/zfcpconf.sh" If you wanted to change the configuration file before that step, you could add another file in /etc/udev/rules.d/ to run your script first, e.g. create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/55-local-zfcp-conf.rules with the line: KERNEL=="zfcp_cfdc", RUN+="/usr/local/sbin/update-zfcp-conf.sh" -- Christof Schmitt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
