[Devil-linux-develop] two old feature requests

[Roland P. <pa...@ta...>]

Hi,
I looked through the pending feature requests, found these:

2002-12-04 20:52
[ 648606 ] split /etc/sysconfig/config
move the "START_FOO" stuff to another file
 we could use software.start as file name and then 
 rename the software file to software.install

Is this still an issue?
I'd suggest moving START_FOO and the variables DAEMON, PARAMETERS, ... from 
the /etc/init.d/ scripts into /etc/sysconfig/foo . Would make it look more 
tidy perhaps ;-)

[ 564057 ] ifconfig -> ip
switch from the ifconfig command in the network script 
 to the ip command. 

All occasion of ifconfig in /etc/init.d/network can be easily changed to ip, 
except for the setting of the hardware mac address. ip can't do this, I am 
not even aware of any program except ifconfig that can do this...
comments?
Roland
