If you are talking about the daemons that start up via /etc/init.d/* scripts, these are called by init which calls rc (in debian, might be different in other distro's), I don't think there is a standard way (debian has /etc/default/rcS which is sourced by rc) I normally change the init script for the daemon and add the env variables there > > Thanks for answering > francesco pietra
