Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey Guys, I'm coming from a linux background and am having trouble understanding how FreeBSD is starting up services. I've gotten some list mail that talks about overriding /etc/defaults/rc.conf (Is this the global place to start services?) with /etc/rc.conf. At any rate, I seem to have NFS running as well as sunrpc and these both seem to be set to "NO" in the /defaults/rc.conf. Are these being started from somewhere else? If anyone could point me to a startup service FAQ or give me some hints at why these services are starting, I'd much appriciate it! Port State Service 111/tcp open sunrpc 587/tcp open submission 1022/tcp open unknown 1023/tcp open unknown 2049/tcp open nfs Thank you!
