Hi David,
some weeks ago we talked 'bout creating a dialog-configuration script for
the samba port. Now I'm ready to go to install some new samba server machines,
so I can write those scripts.
But (because I'm new in making sth. for the world :-)) I need some assistance
when making decisions. So may I ask you some questions, and you (or everyone
who feels appointed) answers them, if possible.
1) Should the configuration modify the port name, like cvsup / cvsup-without-gui?
I think it's possible to create a new port directory automatically for each possible
configuration, so a potential "portupgrade" is able to use the complete config-set
without waiting for the user...
2) If !1:
Should the script provide an option like "Do not delete configuration wished on 'make clean'"?
Same reason like 1: I don't like sit at the side of servers I upgrade ...
I hate the PHP4-port for this!
3) Should the script check (checkable) misconfigurations, or is the admin every time
smart enough?
So long
Jens
