Chris, Assuming the directory "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/" exists, the system configuration is the concatenation of all the files "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/*.conf", then appended to the default configuration, "/stat/etc/rc.conf", to generate the system "/etc/rc.conf". Hence, if variables are defined more than once, the filename with the largest alphanumeric name in "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/" will have precedence. Our standard file for the highest precedence is "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf" . The web interface generates many different config files of the form "gui.*.conf", and can also allow the user to edit "/mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf".
