What "my script" do you mean? The script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/svnserve is already installed by the port, how can I make the stock script read up KRB5_KTNAME from rc.conf? And besides, KRB5_KTNAME should be only defined for the svn user (the user svnserve runs from) and not any other user. > I think that is the officially sanctioned way of doing such things. Of course I can always write my own script or put something like su -l svn -c 'usr/local/bin/svnserve -d --listen-port=3690 bla bla' into /etc/rc.local, but the question was about the rc.d framework. -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:sudakov@sibptus.tomsk.ru
