That was me who complained. I also found it in /etc/rc.i386 but I think I may have a problem with the modes on many of my files in /etc and possibly rc.i386 is not getting run. I need to look into it further. What is the prescribed method for installing files from /usr/src/etc into /etc and getting the permissions right ? Should one just run "make distribution" from /usr/src/etc ? or is one meant to examine the Makefile and just set the permissions manually after copying files into /etc ?
