few points to add/concider: I share the /usr/local among many machines, so /usr/local/etc/rc.d is becoming 'problematic', rc.conf should be involved in the decission to run xxx.sh start/stop on other platforms, i've modified rc to run rc.`hostname` if such file exists. this little trick saved the day many times - i would dump|restore the root partition onto another host, and reboot. having to manage many hosts, it's becoming important to centralize some of the configuration data (Nis/Hesiod based info). I configure amd that is heavely used here, via hesiod. having experienced rc since V6, i have seen some nice ideas and 01some 22horrible 99ones, FreeBSD's so far looks the best! true, i haven't seen NetBSD, and i will asap. my 5cents, danny To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
