I've copied the original Suse 10.2, moved the boot.* scripts in init.d and some other hardware specific scripts: acpid boot.evms boot.preload boot.videobios nscd alsasound boot.ipconfig boot.preload_early fbset ntp autofs boot.klog boot.proc haldaemon powerd bluetooth boot.ldconfig boot.rootfsck halt powerfail boot boot.loadmodules boot.sched halt.local powersaved boot.apparmor boot.local boot.scpm lm_sensors powertweakd boot.cleanup boot.localfs boot.scsidev mdadmd smb boot.clock boot.localnet boot.swap microcode smbfs boot.crypto boot.lvm boot.sysctl network smpppd boot.d boot.md boot.udev nfsserver spamd boot.device-mapper boot.multipath boot.udev_retry nmb Where could be the fault? BTW: pc16@arthur:~> ssh -X pc19@10.0.0.49 xclock Error: Can't open display: arthur2:10.0 The vserver arthur reacts always with the same: Accepted publickey for pc19 from 10.0.0.9 port 33409 ssh2 cheers Ekkard
