I do not remember if this is true before 2.1.7. Looks like that this happens in all current versions. I try to set kernel.securelevel=0 at the last line in rc or rc.local, when the machine boot, it always reset the level to 1 before given the LOGIN prompt. This causes X server will not start due to the KDENBAIO failed (Operation not permitted). I have asked XFree86 folks and they seems not able to resolve this issue. A hint, if kernel.securelevel is set to 0 after login as root rather than set in booting time, it will stay. It is apperently triggered by some booting process. So, I wonder if something can be fixed in FreeBSD kernel to prevent this automatically securelevel jumping? Thanks, -Jin
