Re-invent the Slackware practice of moving the old file to filename.OLD on any upgrade if a conf file already exists. Go a tad further and throw up a notice if any file has been so moved, thus the operator can at least be aware. If we want to be really slick, also make a diff and in the warning a notice to check on... And toss up a list of the diff files thus created. -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com There are people so addicted to exaggeration that they can't tell the truth without lying. _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
