	P-75 CPU, PCI M/B, 16 MB MM, 1.6 GB EIDE HD, Mitsumi 2X CDROM,
	Linksys ISA ethernet adaptor, Diamon SpeedStar video, Multitec
	28.8 modem.

>Description:

	The /etc/rc file contains the pattern X"NO" repeatedly.  However,
	there is a place where the pattern is "XNO".  Is this a bug?
	(I am new to FreeBSD, so not sure of the full syntax of statements
	in /etc/rc).  Following is the area in /etc/rc with this pattern:

	# $namedflags is imported from /etc/sysconfig
	if [ "X${namedflags}" != "XNO" ]; then
		echo -n ' named';               named $namedflags
	fi


>How-To-Repeat:

	

>Fix:
	
	Should this really be:

	# $namedflags is imported from /etc/sysconfig
	if [ "X${namedflags}" != X"NO" ]; then
	        echo -n ' named';               named $namedflags
	fi

	???
