LOL! Well if you use tcs, you can make yourself as many buttons as you want. "OK" or otherwise...

Hehehe! *Had* to read all about it a few years ago, when I was doing Oracle + Unix admin at Rothmans. Haven't looked back into it since then, but it still should be very much the same: there isn't that much difference in Linux. However, as always: don't believe me blank. Please do your own reading, I may well be wrong in a detail here and there!

Yeah, for this sort of stuff it's not half bad. Mind you, I'd hate to have to sequence startup of many different inter-related processes in Windows. This stuff in Unix is slightly complex, but it is very, very flexible.
