Two questions
I know I've asked these before, but the answers have fumbled out of my
sieve-like brain.
1.) What is the init regime on a Hurd system? Is it like SysV, or is there
a system.rc file which I am missing? I am trying to get the ssh daemon
to start up at boot time, but it doesn't. I put the startup script
in /etc/init.d, and used update-rc.d to put it into the appropriate
/etc/rc?.d directories, but no soap. Perhaps it's crashing before
I can get into it to look at it, but it doesn't seem like it.
2.) There is some way of fetching those packages on the debian ftp
server which have been updated since the last time I installed?
I seem to remember there is some option to dpkg to do roughly what
apt-get upgrade does, but I don't recall what it is. I would prefer
to fetch the .deb files actually, just so that I can do a full
reinstall without fetching anything through my slow 56K modem.
Thanks.
