Re: Configuration management, revision 3



A while back in this thread I asked if there was some way a "back" button
could be implemented to return to previous questions in a configuration
script. Here's one way to do this - this is a modification to Wichert's v3
propsal:

  After each GO command, the frontend should return a result status to the
  shell script (via stdin). If it sends a result code of "back", the shell
  script should go back a step. We might want to make this optional so the
  shell script can indicate to the frontend it doesn't have this capability.

Supporting it makes for slightly more complicated shell scripts of course.
