As you're on current then you read this for sure, right? http://www.openbsd.org/faq/current.html#20110707 Not sure if you read that http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=rc.d&sektion=8 , but there's everything described including info that system daemons (like httpd) are started via http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=rc&sektion=8&arch=&apropos=0&man path=OpenBSD+Current and not via pkg_scripts. So instead of guessing try to use documentation. > > -- > Dmitrij D. Czarkoff
