You can actually do files in /etc/rc.conf.d/appname However those files are only included when you do 'service appname start' So you can't just put random settings in /etc/rc.conf.d/adrian I can't make puppet include denyhosts_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf.d/sshd But, a /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/ could be used to enable-on-install, if we wanted to lean in that direction. I am a little divided on that. I don't like the fact that linux enables stuff by default as soon as you install it. -- Allan Jude
