I see references to /etc/rc.d, but the only rc.d directory I am familiar with is /usr/local/etc/rc.d Is this directory the one which is going to be affected? What will happend with programs that don't know about start/stop? do we need to change existing scripts on those directories? francisco Moderator of the Corporate BSD list http://www.egroups.com/group/BSD_Corporate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
