I may have missed this earlier in the thread, but has anyone given any consideration to upgrade installs? If an upgrade doesn't plant the new default files in /etc/default[s] after an upgrade, we now have two places and twice the files to compare on upgrade.
As unorthodox as it sounds, if these defaults are meant to be unchanged, wouldn't a place like /boot/rc, or something similar, make sense? Upgrades get the new whistles, and administrators can fiddle files in /etc to their heart's content. -- Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
