Here is my view on this matter:
I belive the scripts should support three arguments:
start
stop
restart
I belive we need to scan multiple directories, and support the following
semi-hardcoded paths:
/etc/rc.d
for the root's own hacks and for major startup tasks
("sh /etc/rc.d/nfs restart" would be a wonderful thing....)
/etc/pkg/rc.d
for installed packages startup tasks
/etc/X11/rc.d
for X11 related startup tasks.
It should all be under /etc because the security goes south if we are not
very careful.
And that's all folks...
