Hi,

I am porting a Linux program to FreeBSD. The program's functionality relies
on two start-up files:

rc.local     --> starts the daemon in the background
rc.S/sysinit --> creates a timestamp on startup

It's very important for the way the program functions that creating the
timestamp during startup only happens ONCE, no matter if runlevels are
switched, etc etc.

I have found rc.local, is there a FreeBSD equivalent to this rc.S or
rc.sysinit file and what is it? Would it also work on different *BSD's or
not?

Rob
