hmm, why is it, that the folowing 'simple' script (header)
makes the 'broken' interface compliant to 'your' interface
but a probably much longer is required to do it the other
way?
case $2 in
restart|halt|poweroff)
action="reboot"
;;
restart2)
exit 0
;;
esac
exec pauls_vs_helper $action $1 "0x$VS_CMD"
if we are talking about inferior and superior, why do you
think that one (yours) is superior, when they can be
converted?
just think about it ...
best,
Herbert
PS: if the majority of the vserver community prefers
one interface over the other, please let me know ...
(as I said, I have no problem changing that one again
if there _is_ a good reason, and no, because paul
want's it this way, isn't a good one ...)
