Thanks for the explanation. I had gone to the ##freebsd channel on Freenode for help and had been told to run # rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* This showed that I had succeeded in getting jabber to start after mysql, but things were still not working properly. I will email the jabberd maintainer about my experience. 8) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
