NetBSD pkgsrc start scripts depend on foo_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf just as base services. On FreeBSD a small number of ports already do. > so my servers only run scriots that I explicit copy in that dir. I think softlinks are better to keep scripts up to date. -- B.Walter BWCT http://www.bwct.de ticso@bwct.de info@bwct.de
