Re: cfengine cron job
However, the best thing to do would be for cfengine to run without error straight from the package. Even if cfengine doesn't do anything, it shouldn't look ugly. -- Kevin Dalley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ben == Ben Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: On Mon, Dec 14, 1998 at 12:20:51PM +, Graham Ashton wrote: What would be the most debian friendly way of disabling it?

I'll fix it, maybe it will get into slink. -- --- - - --- - - - --- Ben Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.

Execute this command: /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert --local --add --rename --divert /etc/cron.daily/cfengine /etc/cron.daily/cfengine.norun This will move the cron file so that dpkg knows you did it. Also the '.' in the new name will make run-parts not run it (norun :). To mave it back: /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert --remove /etc/cron.daily/cfengine.norun good luck, Ben -- --- - - --- - - - --- Ben Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.
