:Personally, I have to side with Matt.
:I like to have ALL of the files in one directory.
:That way I can "grep ntpd /etc/rc*" and find ALL the line that are likely
:to affect it. Moving some of the files into another directory just
:complicates things.
:
:I like the idea of having all the "default knobs" in one file.
:I recommend /etc/rc.conf.defaults

    I like this idea ( /etc/rc.conf.defaults ) better then
    /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

    Maybe /etc/rc.conf.distribution instead of /etc/rc.conf.defaults.
    Either is better then /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

    I don't think we should have an /etc/defaults/ directory, but if
    it is insisted on then *ALL* the read-only files should be moved into
    it, not just one of them.
