Yup, I often do restart the services installed from ports, too.
I meant that I don't want that the values of user environment are
inherited to the services which is started from the user environment.

dougb> The point of adding a service(8) is to avoid needing to do that. :)

Yes, I hope so.:)
The merit of using service(8) should be that there are more additional
thing than just kicking /etc/rc.d/foo; don't inherit the values of
user environment, IMO.
