I would > greatly appreciate it. I had to install both myself for an application we run on a server. I installed them from /usr/ports/misc/compat4x and compat5x. The install placed the startup scripts 000.compat4x.sh and 000.compat5x.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. They startup after reboot every time. There was no need to place anything in the rc.conf. -- "This message was sent using 100% recycled electrons." _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
