# Here is my view on this matter:
#
From my (user's) point of view:
# I belive the scripts should support three arguments:
# start
# stop
# restart
Bravo!
#
# 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....)
Bravo!
#
# /etc/pkg/rc.d
# for installed packages startup tasks
As 99% of packages are in /usr/local subtree, any reason to avoid
/usr/local/etc/rc.d ?
#
# /etc/X11/rc.d
# for X11 related startup tasks.
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/etc/rc.d ? or maybe
/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d ?
#
# It should all be under /etc because the security goes south if we are not
# very careful.
#
# And that's all folks...
