The current expectation is that rc.conf contains the current settings; moving that elsewhere would be confusing. It is still valid to have rc.conf.template, rc.conf and rc.conf.local, where the second is common to a group of machines, and the last specific only to the machine in question. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com
