Hhm, I am wondering, why I can't stop ntpd within the local.start like it can be done with lisa (technical background is to stop services not needed outside of the IBM network). The sleep is necessary b/c without that ntpd is immediately started after the the stop message of /etc/init.d/ntpd ("OK") appears at the console. Here's the code snippet: tfoerste@n22 ~/tmp $ tail -n 5 /etc/conf.d/local.start if [[ -z "$(grep ibm /etc/resolv.conf 2>/dev/null)" ]]; then /etc/init.d/lisa status | grep -q started && /etc/init.d/lisa stop (/etc/init.d/ntpd status | grep -q started && sleep 10 && /etc/init.d/ntpd stop) & fi And yes: tfoerste@n22 ~/tmp $ emerge --info Portage 2.1-r1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.3.6-r4, 2.6.17-gentoo-r4 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.17-gentoo-r4 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1700MHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.15 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://mirror.icis.pcz.pl/gentoo/ http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/ http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/" LINGUAS="de en" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X aac acpi alsa apache2 arts asf avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 clamav cli crypt css cups dlloader dri dvd emboss encode exif fam fastbuild ffmpeg foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm gif gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 isdnlog jai java javascript jimi joystick jpeg kde libg++ libwww live logrotate mad mbox mikmod mmx mmxext motif mozsvg mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls nptl nsplugin ogg opengl oss pam pcre pdf pdflib perl png pppd python qt qt3 qt4 quicktime readline real reflection rtc rtsp samba sdl session slp snmp spell spl sse sse2 ssl subversion svg tcltk tcpd theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode userlocales vorbis win32codecs xanim xml xorg xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse kernel_linux linguas_de linguas_en userland_GNU video_cards_vga video_cards_radeon" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
