Doesn't sound like it, just checking. Since you'd be adding to the /etc written stuff do you have any comment on the thread that was on here recently about moving things which are written to out of /etc and into somewhere else (such as /run)? Personally I'd like to see the system-modified stuff moved out of /etc, especially for things like this and the ifupdown state information, these aren't things the user is expected to have any part in modifying directly (unlike things like resolv.conf where sometimes the admin modifies it and sometimes it's ppp or dhcp, though it'd be nice if you could split it along that line and make it clear when it's being managed by a system utility vs. when the user controls it). Thanks, Stephen
