could someone send me a copy of /etc/rc from 2.0.5-RELEASE? I didn't
make a backup copy... and I don't have 2.0.5-RELEASE on my system any
more (I have the -SNAP)... would the rc from the snap do?

ok... I have moved xfs, xdm, and pcnfsd to rc.local.. and it fixed my
problem with having to run ldconfig in /etc/rc to get the libaries loaded
for xfs and xdm...
also... I would be willing to modify the /etc/rc script to allow a
variable call external (or something like that) that would list the
programs that you have added (to replace local).. and then have two
variables program and program_path... and as long as
${program_path}program existed and ${program} != NO, it would run the
program with the variables defines in program... sound good?
