            Bug ID: 292604
           Summary: netwait always warns of lack of network functionality
           Product: Base System
           Version: 15.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: conf
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: cdr.nil@gmail.com

netwait issues the following warning, even when ${netwait_ip} has been
successfully pinged:

"Continuing with startup, but be aware you may not have a fully functional
networking layer at this point."

This is due to a defect in /etc/rc.d/netwait. The following patch corrects the
issue:
