Hi all! I've been cruising the BSD lists for approx two years now. I work for a medium sized ISP, and our systems have a lot of shall we say unskilled users; shell access is not allowed. So this being the holiday season and all we tend to get a large number of requests for us to set up some sort of vacation responder messages. these in and of themselves are not the problem as fBSD has a nifty command call vacation, but it just didn't do enough for me. The problem is the accompanying off the wall shedule requests like I want my email responder to start at 04:30 on Friday the 23rd and stop at 10am on Jan 3rd et cettera...On top of that as I said most of our users are /sbin/nologin thus do not have a need for a /home directory. Ok so that leads me to this I've created this utility; it;s written in sh so it should work out of the box. http://www.ocsny.com/main/admin.ocs?url=holiday I have bullied my company into allowing me to publish it as a Yule gift for the BSD community. So please if you use it let me know. Thanks in advance, for taking the time to try it.
