Hi Scott, Friday, December 3, 2004, 5:30:16 PM, you made these points: > I just made the transition to 5.3 from 4.x and I am unclear on the the > new rcNG way of starting locally installed services such as MySQL, > Samba etc. I did read the manual pages on rc.d and rcNG. > I just installed MySQL from ports and would like it to start > automatically on boot. > The manual page for rcNG is a bit unclear for starting local userland > services such as mysql. A working example for a common application > such as MysQL, Postgresql, or Samba would certainly be useful. > My question is: > Do I still start MysQL the old way with the script in > /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh? yes > OR > Do I create an entry in /etc/rc.conf.local with "mysql_enable=YES"? you need to add line mysql_enable=YES to rc.conf > Also, if using the rcNG method, do I have to copy the mysql-server.sh > script to /etc/rc.d/mysql or will rcNG make use of default no > /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh? yes ;-) -- Best Regards, +----------==/\/\==----------+ (__) FreeBSD | DanGer <danger@wilbury.sk> | \\\'',) The | DanGer@IRCnet ICQ261701668 | \/ \ ^ Power | http://danger.homeunix.org | .\._/_) To +----------==\/\/==----------+ Serve [ Malpractice makes malperfect. ]
