++ 23/12/01 19:36 -0500 - darklogik@pittgoth.com: | Hiten, | | Please also note, if not already, the astounding difference | between our sysv init to Linux. Linux has an rc.d directory which | contains files and folders for different "modes" and FreeBSD does | not have an rc.d directory. Taking this topic a bit deeper, I really Actually, it does: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/. And it is the preferred place for startup scripts (except the system stuff in /etc/rc and friends, controlled by rc.conf). | like (as a previous linux user) the FreeBSD rc system, the rc.local | is alot easier to work with and on and on... To be totally honest, I | think FreeBSD IS easier to use than linux (I know someone may | hit me for that) but its my opinion though... It is nice that you get the option to use rc.local still (although this is deprecated). -pete -- Pete Fritchman [petef@(databits.net|freebsd.org|csh.rit.edu)] finger petef@databits.net for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
