   this  just  might  be it but... how do i see which is starting up the
   dns  test  search?  i  have  `inetd' disabled in rc.conf and the only
   thing thats in /usr/local/etc/rc.d are:

as1# ll /usr/local/etc/rc.d
total 4
-rwxr-x--x  1 root  wheel  434 Apr 16 02:00 apache.sh
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  392 Apr  4 08:16 samba.sh
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  392 Apr  3 11:35 samba.sh.sample
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  454 Apr  8 23:00 sshd.sh
as1#
   
   apache  can  go  but  not  samba  or  sshd. could it be samba doing a
   lookup?  if so, how can i disable samba from doing so during startup?
   also,   i  would  normally  get  an  intermittent  'annoyance'  from
   `arplookup' spewing these:

Apr 18 09:37:26 as1 /kernel: arplookup 10.0.0.2 failed: could not allocate llinfo

   where  10.0.0.2  is  my nt machine. it could be this thats trigerring
   the  dialup. but how do i disable it? i know i maybe asking a bit too
   much  but  i  hope you'd understand that i'm only using freebsd for a
   month and a half. thanks for the patience... in advance :)
