Any other takers on this?  I don't think adding the line to /etc/rc.conf caused
the problem.  The system hasn't been rebooted in about 4 months so it could have
been anything else duringthat time.  the /etc/rc.conf change is the only recent
addition (the reboot being to see if that worked...  which...)

thanks

Dave
