At the moment my | www/orion port uses an 'orionctl' script for starting and stopping the | daemon. But I would like 'orionctl' to be available for all users in the | group 'www'. Since chmod +s is disabled for shell scripts, I'm going to write | a small C file. | | Somehow it doesn't `feel' right if I put it in ${FILESDIR}. But it's very | small, so.... I don't really know. Couldn't find anything in the Porters | Handbook about this. | | Any comments? locate .c | grep /usr/ports | grep files | grep -v "files/patch-" Lots of ports do it, I'd say it would be fine. --pete -- Pete Fritchman [petef@(databits.net|freebsd.org|csh.rit.edu)] finger petef@databits.net for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
