Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG to throw my 2 cents in... The dependencies problem is a solvable problem... There are two wins. One win is the ability to get people who grew up with linux/solaris to get to work easily. The other win is the simple fact that it is so easy to go: /etc/r.c/init.d/{name your service} start|stop|status|restart All the start and stop scripts for the various services are in one directory.
