E.g. = portaudit just installs a periodic script, and I think the disaster = would happen when you forget to also enable it in some config file. = PostgreSQL installs both a daemon and periodic scripts, but the scripts = do nothing when the daemon is not running. So I think it really depends = on what the port does. Erik=
