I just setup a laptop with FreeBSD-current and i swap
the sysconfig file around to change the identity of the system based on
where I am.
eg:
/etc/sysconfig-home
/etc/sysconfig-work
gets copied to /etc/sysconfig
[yea yea, no shit, I know... everyone does this :-]
at Home I want to NFS mount my home-servers disk but on the
road I do not want to use NFS.
instead of also editing or swaping the /etc/fstab file
I just changed the line in /etc/rc from:
mount -a -t nfs >/dev/null 2>&1
to =
if [ "X${nfs_client}" =3D X"YES" ]; then
mount -a -t nfs >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
thus if nfs_client=3DNO (from /etc/sysconfig) I do not even try to NFS mou=
nt.
-Pete
PS: Next is to add a prompter to the /etc/rc script to prompt
me on that sysconfig to use :-)
