10/03/00 Release 001003 (#23) to the development team Changes from Bruce Mohler (in Linux.pm and SunOS.pm: added code to add an additional field to the network interface is the machine is using DHCP as its boot protocol; in remaining UNIX .pm files: added comment in network interface routine to add code for detecting whether the NIC is using DHCP to obtain its network configuration) Changes from Edward Moroch (in install shell script: changed /bin/sh to /bin/ksh since Bourne shell doesn't appear to like negating the result of a built-in test; in syssumm.pl: provision for an "overrides" file that would override locally derived values with those from the file (e.g., BackupProcedure, SystemHandle, DateSystemInstalled, etc.), this allows local system administrators to plug in values on machines that they have access to rather than on the central web server) Changes from Paul Thomson (in HPUX.pm: added code to return the size of the swap file; in syssumm.pl and syssumm.format: added new section Graphics and 2 new fields: FrontView and RearView)
