I have added mt-st to the Network Support component. I won't add openssh-server to that component since it is turned on by default in the package. If openssh-server is needed, you can select it as an individual package during the install. I'm closing this as WONTFIX. Tim |
Did a minimum workstation install -- no Gnome, no KDE, no -- it carries: rmt [-- but no mt-st -- How shall one make W/S cronned backups?] and a lot of cruft apmd (!) LOTS of audio stuff LOTS of DOS stuff: dos2unix, unix2dos, dosfstool, mtools, samba-client, samba-common LOTS of graphics stuff even with NO advanced window manager -- gimp, ImageMagick iptables and lokkit, even though a Workstation install LOTS of cd creationstuff -=- mkieofs, cdrecord, cdlabelgen ... Mozilla AND Netscape gnome-audio, rhn_register-gnome -- even though no Gnome rusers, rwho efax sane stuff gphoto stuff yp-tools -- (still ?) ... you get my drift -- lots of fat stuff, lots of niche stuff ----------------------------------- Tried to sudo printconf-gui, but I am unable to get a console in X -- the fallback is to: ssh root@localhost ; printconf-gui -- which would work, for it would keep the permissions right -- but no sshd is present to start so I might Openssh-server is less that 300K -- trivial -- it is a basic security tool, just as is sudo -- ship it turned off but installed in _every_ base install. Please consider adding openssh-server to the base install, to encourage NOT unnecesarily logging in as root for admin purposes. -- Russ Herrold
