Hi,

Prompted by an earlier email, I'm curious as to what
the 'standard' is for starting services in FreeBSD.
For example, I have manually downloaded and compiled
apache from source, without using the ports
collection, as I required
apache+mod_ssl+php4+mod_perl. This was easy enough to
configure and compile, but... in what file would be
the 'correct' place to run the apachectl startssl
command? /etc/rc.network? How does the /etc/rc.d/
directory (which mysteriously appeared a few days ago
on my system! - presumably as part of a pkg_add) fit
in?

I've just got my head around the way Linux does
things, so what's FreeBSD's take on startup?

Thanks in advance,
Dan
