Glad you got it working, but somehow I doubt there was any need for a reboot. Probably that was just one way of reloading a service or something - in 12 years of linux I've never seen a case where it was necessary to reboot after installing a program.
try (as root) :
rc <TAB> (type the letters r then c then the TAB key) to see the list of restartable services (one of the handy openSUSE things :-)
You'll probably need two presses of the TAB key. The first one will just beep, the second will list all available completions in the context of the current cursor position within the current command line.
Good tip, thanks. I'm so used to /etc/init.d that I'll probably continue using that. I can see I'll have to read up on the differences between Suse and Debian. Problem is I run a couple of Debian servers where I only have SSH access so I don't want to go trying Suse specific commands there :) -- John K Masters - User #417400 in the Linux Counter http://counter.li.org/ No trees were killed in the creation of this message.
