Well now that much is true - I suppose I could sort it, or something. > Then rc.conf.site doesn't contain every knob which rc.conf has. Erm, it's not supposed to. It's supposed to contain only those knobs you want to change. Are we even talking about a 3.0/4.0 snapshot made after 99/2/5 23:00 PST? I did send email out about this. > Well, maybe I overlooked some things advantages ;-) Then please tell me. As usual, I think you're just out of date and we're not even talking about current technology. :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
