Not sure what else is to be done other than enable it in /etc/rc.conf Thanks Miles On 11/13/06, Lowell Gilbert wrote: > > Miles writes: > > > Running 6.1 installed from the most recent .iso CD and sync'd ports > > through CVS, I wish to have the Ventrilo port start up as a daemon > > upon reboot, however, I'm not having any success in having this > > happen.
