Hi,
All the various daemon that use options flag in rc.conf, all have
daemon_flags=NO # for normal use: ""
when you put the options for your daemon.
I am looking to add -R to inetd, but there isn't any
inetd_flags, just the:
inetd=YES # almost always needed
So, just in case, even if I didn't expect it to work, I tried
inetd="-R 1024" # almost always needed
and it didn't work obviously. So, how would you recommend to have it
configure in the rc.conf.local properly then?
I started in the command line, so nothing urgent, but should the box
be rebooted, I would like to be sure it start properly as well.
Do you really need to set it globally?
You could use the [.max] part of each configuration line for a
service-specific setting.
... but if you really want it in /etc/rc*, then I'd suggest putting
inetd=NO
inetd_flags="-R 1024"
in /etc/rc.conf.local and
if [ X"${inetd_flags}" != X"NO" -a -x /usr/sbin/inetd ]; then
echo -n ' inetd'; /usr/sbin/inetd ${inetd_flags}
fi
(not tested) in /etc/rc.local, assuming there is no service provided by
inetd that is needed earlier in the startup process.
You could of course make similar changes to /etc/rc and submit diffs,
but I am not sure it would be considered relevant (since it can be
altered per-service, which, in my opinion, seems more natural).

Thanks,
I may submit a patch, not sure it would be picked up, but I can send one.
I was looking if I did overlook something as I didn't see the usual flags.
Thanks
Daniel
