FreeBSD  4.3-RC4 FreeBSD 4.3-RC4 #0: Tue Apr 17 13:31:48 GMT 2001     jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC  i386

>Description:
When sendmail and inetd are disabled during sysinstall rc.conf is improperly amended.

Contents of /etc/rc.conf are as follows:

inetd_enable="NO"
inetd_enable="YES"
sendmail_enable="NO"
sendmail_enable="YES"

The improper amendment of the file causes both inetd and sendmail to be enabled by default.

>How-To-Repeat:
Disable inetd and sendmail during sysinstall.
>Fix:
Correct the script to replace the contents of these variables in the rc.conf file rather than amend the file.
