I think you have gotten no replies because you have not given enough information. What do you want to do? What do you mean by "custom", is it "customize"? I have never needed a file to customize nfs mounts. Explain a little more, please.

Finally, make the lock daemon listen on port 4045 only - note that this requires

Are you running the installed "huge" kernel ? If so this won't work. It is recommended to switch to the generic kernel anyway after installation. From the CHANGES_AND_HINTS on the install media :
Quote:
Use one of the provided generic kernels for daily use. Do not report
bugs until/unless you have reproduced them using one of the stock
generic kernels. You will need to create an initrd in order to boot
the generic kernels - see /boot/README.initrd for instructions.
This will load lockd as a module and then the /etc/modprobe.d/lockd will take effect.
You don't need to recompile your kernel for this.
Robby Workman frequents the ##slackware irc channel so I suppose this is the one he's referring to.
I had edit the kernel conf and recompile it, no issue now bro.
For the record, all you had to do to enable the battery power meter was uncomment/add a line in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules-$(uname -r) that loads the proper module. For example, this line in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules-2.6.24.5-smp:
Code:
# Battery (adds battery information through/proc/acpi/battery):
#/sbin/modprobe battery
