Not as I might have hoped. Moving one of the jail config files from /etc/ into a newly created /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/jail/ and then issuing `service jail status` results on a bunch of errors. The errors point to the file not being read as a config file, but being sourced as a "script". And indeed, this "script" does get sourced; root@jh03:~ # cat /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/jail/local_jail_functions echo "--- set:" set Also, this happens regardless of local_startup being set in rc.conf or not. > From rc.conf (5): > In addition to /etc/rc.conf.local you can also place smaller > configuration files for each rc(8) script in the /etc/rc.conf.d directory > or ⟨dir⟩/rc.conf.d directories specified in local_startup, which will be > included by the load_rc_config function.

So first of all, it reads (to me at least) to mean that *scripts* or script *functions* will be read from (files in) the directory, not config files. But aside from that, the directories listed seem inconsistent. As you may have noticed, I put the "script" above in /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/jail/local_jail_functions Moving it to (freshly created) /usr/local/rc.conf.d/jail/ results in the file *not* being sourced, and once again this is independant of local_startup being set in rc.conf or not. So I don't think this would work the way I had hoped. It has given me an idea though, which I will be exploring later... ...I'll unveil that hare-brained scheme once I figure out something about the rc script sourcing sequence... br /jon -- YMMV
