How do I know if a specific system file has an associated template?

0

A3.16 Just check for its existence. All of the CensorNet’s template files are located in the same directory as the system file for which they provide a template. So whilst you’re at the CensorNet’s command line, and in the directory where a system file you wish to modify exists, type, for example ls hosts.tmpl If the system responds hosts.tmpl then the file exists. If all you get is a blank line and a new prompt, it doesn’t. Where a template file exists, you must edit the template file (taking care not to break the templates) and then run the associated update script. This is the only way to ensure any changes you might make don’t get inadvertently clobbered later.
