Relevant elements of the current configuration: * djbdns installed but NOT configured or started (other than setting up the user accounts to eventually access it). * Ditto for apache, PHP, Perl 5.6.1 and mysql. As I understand it, none of these should have the domain and host names in their config files and I should be able to make a global change in /etc/rc.conf -- is this correct, or should I make changes elsewhere as well? And once I make the changes, is a simple reboot all that's required? (As you might surmise, this is a brand new install, and we just decided to run it under a different host/domain for administrative reasons.) Many thanks, Greg B.
