I mean exactly that. Initially I have begun looking at rc.conf as a logical starting point. Initially I think seeing a rc.d stuck right in right after NETWORKING would be very interesting to have. Right after NETWORKING is finished, a program is kicked off that updates a rc file that is then included after parsing rc.conf. I am currently wondering if any one else working on this, before I start digging to much into it. The only LDAP stuff I am finding on this list has been recently in regards to integration of a ldap nss module into the base system.
