In the case of starting something that's in the base system rather than ports, I suppose that /etc/rc.local would be the conventional choice, though either one works.

I don't know about these two. I'm not sure what TCP_WRAPPERS are, and I know of nothing specific but I'd be surprised if some create google or Altavista searches didn't turn up some info on the latter. -- Brian, the man from Babble-On . . . . bts@babbleon.org (personal) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
