I think that is exactly the desired design. The RC *system* starts things correctly, but the manager, *bypassing* the RC *system* can start and stop things exactly as he wished. For debugging or whatever. I'd argue that if you want to start/stop a *subtree*, you should ask the RC *system* to do that somehow. -- Robert Withrow -- (+1 978 288 8256, ESN 248) BWithrow@NortelNetworks.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
