    I don't think this may be a REQUIRE issue, but a BEFORE: one

    as an explample, if inetd must launch a NETWORK, it must be launch BEFORE
    LOGIN.

    I can't send-pr this. I doesn't know even how to begin.

    I rather puzzle that, ading a simple script (xdm) I can't manage to put it
    at the very end of rcorder (I have race problems between gettys from
    /etc/ttys and xdm).

    To get a working patch, I've to rename xdm to 0xdm. It, at a minimum,
    annoying.
    I can sure what is. But rcorder seems to be very sensitive to 'string
    order'.
    Take note is other problems arise ... Just putting another script more !!

    And ... why? sshd, sendmail, inetd, othermta ... It's no sense. All this
    are network servers that must be on NETWORK, REQUIRE NETWORKING and be run
    BEFORE LOGIN ¿no?.
