The rc manpage explains rc.d/ and the magic keywords used inside its scripts. > For instance, if I would like to start ipfw before dhclient (right > now dhclient starts, then ipfw starts), how would I accomplish this? Add "ipfw" to dhclient's REQUIRE line. This change was made to -current, so when 5.3 ships it'll already do what you want :) -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
