The only thing in the scripts is this: [d.hill@cgate ~]$ cat /usr/local/etc/rc.d/000.compat4x.sh #!/bin/sh /sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib/compat [d.hill@cgate ~]$ cat /usr/local/etc/rc.d/000.compat5x.sh #!/bin/sh /sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib/compat Why they have to both be present, I haven't figured that out yet. ldconfig points both at the same location. -- "This message was sent using 100% recycled electrons."
