Sounds like the only missing pieces, then, are standard ways to enable, disable, and configure services. How about: sudo /etc/rc.d/ssh enable sudo /etc/rc.d/ssh disable sudo /etc/rc.d/ssh configure That shouldn't be much of a stretch to implement, either. The first two just append entries to /etc/rc.conf. The third opens an editor with a list of variables supported by this service and then appends the result to rc.conf. Tim
