Do I still stick my aliases in rc.conf or > /etc/default/rc.conf? in /etc/rc.conf. Basically, you override stuff from /etc/defaults/rc.conf with whatever you put in /etc/rc.conf. I actually haven't tried this yet. I mistakenly modified /etc/defaults/rc.conf based on incorrect advice. I was in the progress of moving my diffs to /etc/rc.conf when I overwrite the defaults one with a fresh copy. doh. -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary http://www.FreeBSDDiary.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
