I've installed and configured syslog-ng from ports and no longer wish to have the standard syslogd run. Putting syslogd_enable="NO" into /etc/rc.conf did not prevent it from starting. Of course I can see lots of ways of preventing syslogd from starting. I could remove the binary, I could remove /etc/rc.d/syslogd, but I would like to know if there is a recommended, easy to undo, and update resistant way of doing this. Thanks, -j -- Jeffrey Goldberg http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/
