Patch for init.d script

Description Alexandre Ghisoli 2006-05-22 09:23:16 UTC
Since l2tpd is somewhat outdated, so Xelerance Corporation has re-packaged l2tpd into new distribution toolkit :
http://www.xelerance.com/software/xl2tpd/

"Our version contains many patches that have not yet been integrated into the mainstream release. These patches are needed to run on modern distributions with DEVFS, or to support L2TP over IPsec, when used in conjunction with Openswan."

Patch for init.d script

This small patch correct init.d file about configuration files location (/etc/xl2tp)
Comment 4 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-30 14:18:03 UTC
Commited to the tree, but with several modifications:
  - the configuration directory is /etc/l2tpd (this is the default)
  - xl2tpd is blocked by net-dialup/l2tpd and vice-versa (both daemons have the same name and path)
  - net-dialup/ppp has been added to RDEPEND
  - no /etc/l2tpd/l2tpd.conf gets installed by default (that sample file isn't suited to be the default l2tpd.conf file). Instead, I've changed init script to check the existence of that file.
  - l2tp-secrets file is installed with mode 0600.

Those modifications were also applied to net-dialup/l2tpd.
