I must not have made myself clear. All the changes I describe are ALREADY in /usr/src/etc/defaults/rc.conf I'm not modifying anything that doesn't come with the system, or recommen= ding=20 modifying anything that normally doesn't come with the system. These are changes that I had to make manually after I upgraded my system = from=20 FreeBSD 4.4 to FreeBSD 4.6.2. The gentleman that I posted these modifications for seemed to be experien= cing=20 the exact same error messages that I was experiencing after the upgrade.
