I also let run "mergemaster -i", it updated some files and installed the new file "rc.bsdextended". To rule out a someway mangled source tree i made a clean checkout of "/usr/src" and build the world again, but "/etc/rc.d/network" was not installed. I looked in cvs again and found, that this script is not linked to the build in "/usr/src/etc/rc.d/Makefile". In Fri Aug 29 13:25:08 2003 there was also some cleaning up in this file (rev 1.25), the scripts "network1" "network2" "network3" were removed. I dont know if this actual "/etc/rc.d/network" script is an artifact of this clean sweep, but the latest changes to this file were made after August 2003, so i dont think so. As for the "/etc/defaults/rc.conf" file, i have Revision 1.212.2.13 which is the latest version tagged as RELENG_5. Also using Revision 1.243 the script failed with theses warnings, and i dont have a idea where to set these variables. Is actually someone using the script "/etc/rc.d/network"? Greetings Martin
