I have to ^C to get it to finish booting and then I notice that named is not yet running and have to manually start it. I presume the hanging is because some of my dameons are trying to resolve some host. Where should I be starting named from? my rc.local: echo -n 'starting local daemons:' #put your local stuff here echo " sshd"; /usr/local/sbin/sshd echo " smbd" && /usr/local/sbin/smbd -D echo " nmbd" && /usr/local/sbin/nmbd -D echo " dhcpd"; /usr/local/sbin/dhcpd pn1 echo " TCP portsentry" && /usr/local/bin/portsentry -tcp echo " UDP portsentry" && /usr/local/bin/portsentry -udp echo " httpd" && /usr/local/sbin/apachectl start Should I just be starting named in rc.local?
