--mvpLiMfbWzRoNl4x Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I have seen a similar error in the mysql startup script: /usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld --skip-networking --user=3Dmysql > /dev/null & &= & echo -n ' mysqld' yielding: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh: 6: Syntax error: "&&" unexpected This appeared shortly after upgrade from -release to -stable. Note that the mysql script is quite odd, in itself. It comes back to: sh -c 'true & && echo foo' which is quite foolish anyways. I'll try to investigate. A.
