--QKdGvSO+nmPlgiQ/ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi, I'm a new user of FreeBSD (tho I have about 3 years of experience working with Linux) and just installed 3.3-Release. To my joy, I have managed to upgrade everything to 3.3-Stable using cvsup and make world, configured my soundcard, and got NFS and NIS working. All seems pretty good in the world of *BSD. I have been using The Complete FreeBSD as my main guide to getting things working (as well as a library of O'Reilly books for the networking stuff). However, I see the file rc.local mentioned several times in The Complete FreeBSD as a way to set up local services like xdm. Usually it looks like this # Put your local stuff here <setup stuff for daemon in question> Unfortunately, that file doesn't appear to be on my system, and I have no idea what is supposed to be above that line. Can anyone help me out?
