I searched around and figured that out. Now I have a few other questions.
1) How did it suddenly get in my /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory anyway?
2) If it is not specifically enabled or disabled in the rc.conf file,
why is it complaining? Other files in ./rc.d do not complain if there is
no entry in the rc.conf file. They just do not start. At least that is
what I believe happens.
3) Would this be considered a bug of some type?
