Sendmail binary is nuked now so rc scripts are no problem. Near as I can tell slackware's package management system doesn't even allow* for uninstall scripts. It just looks at what was in the tar file and nukes whats listed. Which leads to stuff not being deleted when the install script messes with things... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: tclug-list-unsubscribe at mn-linux.org For additional commands, e-mail: tclug-list-help at mn-linux.org
