Subj: Re: the file didn't go away
Farrell, the clean-up happens different nights for different pools
(it also does a consistency check which takes a long time):
Mon,Thu: os
Tue,Fri: x11
Wed,Sat: cde
You can use bcs -c to change the comment leader, after the file's been
created eg:
bcs -c"# " foo
bcs -c" * " bar
or the -c can be used in bcreate, or if you try to bco an get caught by
the menu, you can use the 'leader' option.
After bcs -c, you can then pull in the appropriate header to match from
/usr/sde/osf1/headers/header.<ext>
You can resume working with the file by just doing a new bco, after the
bcs -u -o file.
bcreate isn't quite clever enough - if the file exists it'll set the comment
leader based on the extension, but using an rcs built-in list rather than
the headers directory.
I've removed the file anyway, just so you can get a clean start.
bcreate -c"# " startdhcp will do what you wanted, then manually pull
in the appriate /usr/sde/osf1/headers/header.*sh file at the top.
