>Description:
After removing bind from base the rc.d script was moved to ports. The problem is that it overrides variables from rc.conf.
>How-To-Repeat:
I installed bind from ports, add enable_named="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and did a reboot. During my tests with rc_debug="YES" I discovered:
/etc/rc: DEBUG: checkyesno: named_enable is set to NO.
and in effect named was not started.
Attached patch fixes the problem.
