It wasn't in /usr/pkg/etc/rc.d/, but I assume you meant to say /etc/rc.d/ there? :-) Well spotted, I never checked there for it! I'll have a look at that one later.
When I first started using pkgsrc I tried to keep the FBSD ports system installed at the same time. I got hopelessly lost in the details of where the rc and config files should be installed. I'm still a bit uncertain about these details, actually, even though I managed to get everything working just by trial-and- error.
It is a little different, but I do like how everything goes under /usr/pkg.
I remember (dimly) that doing a pkgsrc/bootstrap asks you where you want certain things installed, like the rc.d directory, just as one example.
It does?! When I ran the bootstrap script it just..... ran! Didn't ask me any questions :-)
Are there gurus out there who can give us the real facts?
