/etc/init.d/network restart works on ANY *n*x platform except BSD
In case you come across those BSD things (to put it mildly) one can do something like: ln -s /usr/local/etc/rc.d/network /etc/rc.d/network
(I alway forget where free puts its scripts and data, as they don't give a damn about fsh)
The fractured and shattered BSD community has everything but destroyed, through pride and arrogance, what was Bill Joy's baby and what USED TO BE (past tense!) the premier *nix platform :-( There was a time when BSD was not only relevant, but *the* platform where all of the important development was happening. Now we have three camps, each headed up by a glory-hound, and each of whom refuses to even *work* with anyone....which is why BSD is all but irrelevent now. It's too bad Bill Joy couldn't come back and rattle some cages and get these three arrogant pricks to cooperate with ...well, ANYBODY. The disregard for the FSH is merely one of many incompatibilities retained merely for the sake of "staying different." And I say this as someone who cut his teeth, so to speak, on 4.2 and (in all of it's various forms) 4.3 BSD (such as 4.3 BSD Tahoe on CCI [a nice machine in its day], etc.). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
