What about etc/periodic and etc/rc.d? I don't think followings are generally applied to others, but here's my case: * I've modified /etc/periodic/security/security.function. In check_diff() function, there's a line that compares old one and a new one. However, in my cases, there are lots of bogus output will be generated (it is assumed one, not a bug or admin failure), so I'd like to trim off unwanted output by egrep(1) -- changing the file is the only answer. * Also /etc/rc.d/ppp-user got a little hack. Usually one PPPoE connection is enough, but I need two PPPoE connections, one for the Internet, and another for ADSL carrier-local network. There's an option to add a script, /etc/rc.d/ppp2-user for example, to connect the second connection -- but it doesn't work as expected. Yes, second ppp(8) instance runs, but not just after the first ppp(8) runs. I've been trying to fix an order, but no lucks. So I've changed ppp-user script to run two ppp(8). If there's a chance that users may modify /etc files, "overriding /etc files silently" should be avoided as we can, IMHO. -- - Makoto `MAR' Matsushita
