It's idiot proof (for most values of idiot) to have just one way to do it (this is ports, not perl). 2. SGI recommends inetd. 3. Unless you edit the config file to change the timeout, once you quit kde, fam will go away, and most people don't know enough to either edit the config file or restart the damn thing. 4. If I try to explain (3) it'll totally negate (1). ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Alan Eldridge Unix/IT Pro, 20+ yrs, seeking new employment.
