Can't we change the default to not starting the daemon? I don't actually believe that it is. rc.conf in the source tree has routed enabled, but sysconfig defaults it to off. (At least, none of the ca. 2.2.5 systems we have installed have routed running, and we don't turn it off explicitly.) -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\
