( ok that's enough for this e-mail ). More includes (for the advanced scripting -- again, tapping into what /usr/= share/bsdconfig/script.subr provides), there are sub-directories in /usr/sh= are/bsdconfig (but again, script.subr brings them all in): media/ -- one file for each type of media (FTP, HTTP, HTTP Proxy, NFS, ... = etc.) networking/ -- scripts for getting, setting, and interactively modifying ne= twork packages/ -- package management password/ -- root password startup/ -- rc.conf(5) and startup services timezone/ -- like tzsetup usermgmt/ -- user management stuff Each of those includes a lot of low-level functionality but it's all docume= nted very well. That being said... there's one more avenue of scripting. All of the bsdconfig(8) modules that act as front-ends to the above librari= es. Those are in /usr/libexec/bsdconfig -- and you can call those from your bsd= install ``/etc/installerconf'' too. # Example A /usr/libexec/bsdconfig/090.timezone/timezone However, it's far easier to just say: # Example B bsdconfig timezone For a list of keywords to the modules, say either: bsdconfig -h *or* Peruse the diagram (which is generated by "bsdconfig dot"): http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/download/bsdconfig/bsdconfig-HEAD-20130506-= 3i.svg The green parallelograms are the bsdconfig keywords, and the blue rectangle= s represent the modules (mousing over it will show the /usr/libexec/bsdconf= ig path in a tooltip). --=20 Devin > --=20 > Devin >=20 > _____________ > The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confident= ial.
