>Description:
in /usr/sbin/periodic, the shell script first eat
/etc/defaults/rc.conf and then only if that file does not exist does
it try to read /etc/rc.conf. Isn't /etc/rc.conf supposed to override
/etc/defaults/rc.conf?

	

>How-To-Repeat:

	

>Fix:

	

=== cd /opt/current/src/usr.sbin/periodic/
=== cvs diff -u periodic.sh
