I'm really curious about this, myself. One of the reasons the SYSV scripts have the numeric prefix is so that you know exactly what order things will be started in. With the NetBSD stuff, this is not immediately obvious though I guess one could have a top level rc file with an explicit ordering similar to our various subdir Makefiles, but that also gives you another location to edit when dropping in a new startup file. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
