Put all this as far of you mind as you can. Reading carefully /etc/rc.d/sendmail, I think we need and aditional 'syncpoint' just after or before LOGIN and revise if all that we put in LOGIN must really be there. After the xdm experience, I think we need something that we can name as our near latest rc stage, with just those things that can have race conditions with our real latest: those things that we launch from init via /etc/ttys. -- josemi -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/
