Hi all. Sorry for the off-topic post, but I'm wagering I'll get a
_courteous_ answer here. ;-,
I'm working up a little subsystem under FreeBSD, and it's activity is
reported by periodic(8). After browsing OpenBSD's CVS, I see nothing
as robust as FreeBSD's.
So, for this subsystem to work similarly under OpenBSD, the script I
would put in /usr/local/etc/periodic/daily under FreeBSD would actually
have to be integrated into OpenBSD's /etc/daily script? Or would it be
[integrated into an existing] OpenBSD's /etc/daily.local?
For that matter, would NetBSD's equivalent to FreeBSD's periodic(8) be
yet another variation on the theme? I hadn't looked (my bad).
Thanks,
Dave
