Use the =startchange= and =endchange= scripts in =/usr/local/adm=. I was going to include Mike Ledoux's instructional message in here, but I can't find it in the archives! -- Main.BruceDawson - 23 Feb 2006 That's because I never wrote one. I described a method that I thought would work to control access, then quickly wrote the scripts to do it and sent them up to the server. Usage is simple, really, just run =startchange= as yourself before making any changes, then run =endchange= when you are done. The scripts will prompt you for a log message (reading from stdin, redirection works fine; or use the =-e= option to fire up a real editor) then do all the magic for you. -- Main.MikeLedoux - 27 Feb 2006 The scripts have been combined into one multi-call script, and some functionlity added. The script and links now live =/usr/local/adm/bin/= with data files in =/usr/local/adm/changes/=. There is a =logchange= script one can run to record notes on a change that didn't need the start/end guarding. See the source for details. -- Main.BenScott - 03 Apr 20 The script keeps getting tweaked to add (creeping) features. I attached the latest version of the =admchange= script to this page, in case others might find it useful. The source is fairly well-commented, with usage instructions at the top. Share and enjoy! -- Main.BenScott - 21 May 2006
