Stewart" To: freebsd-current@freebsd.org Subject: time daemon error in rc files Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk TWIMC, We have just started running with the -current, and have switched our set of /etc/rc* files with those in /usr/src/etc. We noticed that the timed daemon was not starting at boot. It seems there is a misspelling of the timed_enable variable that is set in rc.conf, and used in rc.network: rc.conf:timed_enabled="YES" # Run the time daemon (or NO). ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ rc.network: if [ "X${timed_enable}" = X"YES" ]; then We left rc.conf alone, but took out the past tense in the rc.conf.local file in our working directory. It probably should be fixed in the source tree, though. Jim Stewart
