The following reply was made to PR docs/113695; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Marc Silver <marcs@draenor.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, billf@mu.org Cc: Subject: Re: docs/113695: handbook suggests different lockfile than gbde(8) manpage Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2008 14:22:19 +0200 --V88s5gaDVPzZ0KCq Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi there, I double checked this and /etc/rc.d/gbde does indeed look for a file that ends in ".lock". Furthermore, the rc.d script explicitly looks in /etc for a lockfile unless gbde_lockdir is explicitly set in /etc/rc.conf. Included is a patch that corrects the article as well as adding notes regarding the fact that GBDE lock files must end in .lock and adding mention of the gbde_lockdir override. With regards to the 'c' partition vs. the 'real' partition, I was able to set this up with the 'c' partition without any error, but since the guide states that the disk output should be used as a guideline I don't think this is too much of a trainsmash.
