[Please CC - I'm not on the list] Hello!
I've got a suggestion for the LSB regarding the cron.d/-directory and the execution of backup files - it's unclear for me, whether files ending with a tilde will be executed or not. Maybe this seems to be clear for you because it's hardcoded stuff into cron(?), but there is anacron and may be other cron-replacements will be there some day. And you write that the files there should be scripts because they have to be edited by sysadmins (causing ~-files). Regards, Onno (Kortmann) PS: This may also be a problem for other directories (e.g. startup dirs) where each file in it has to be executed. There should be a general standard how a "backup file" will be named and whether it will be executed or not.
