>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-960801-SNAP i386
>Environment:

	
just a gen 2.2-0801-SNAP box, nothing special

>Description:

	
you really can't add your own daily unless you modify daily...  do the same for rc the rc.local is and slurp in daily.local if it exists...
>How-To-Repeat:

create a /etc/daily.local, nothing happens :)
	

>Fix:
	
apply this fix to /etc/daily...  yeh... I know it modifies an OLD unmodified part of the system... but I thought others might find it useful...
