1 I keep getting complaints that vmware and cups form a dependency cycle,
2 although I haven't seen it be a problem in practice.

4 However, I just rebooted my system (a very rare event), and found that there's
5 a real problem with vmware and apache2. Apache2 comes first, but it's set
6 up knowing about the pseudo-networks that vmware establishes, and it's
7 starting before the networks are alive. This makes it give up and die.

9 Summary:
10 -- is there actually a problem between cups and vmware, and if that's
11 "maybe", how can I tell for sure.
12 -- how do I adjust the order of scripts so that apache starts after vmware?
