Bug ID: 278169
Summary: Rethink /etc/rc.conf.d/ Function.
Product: Base System
Version: 14.0-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---

Hi.
>From what I understand the files under /etc/rc.conf.d/ are read only to set
some additional options for a service. For example *caddy_enable=YES* needs to
be in /etc/rc.conf file anyway and if you want to set additional options for
*caddy* service you can use /etc/rc.conf.d/caddy file for that.
After reading this Reddit [1] thread I think it would be better to treat
/etc/rc.conf.d/ the same as other /etc/*.d firs - like /etc/cron.d or like
/etc/jail.conf.d - so you can both enable and configure services at
/etc/rc.conf.d/config level ... and also without limiting the name of the
config file under /etc/rc.conf.d/ dir.
It may be also discouraging/misleading for FreeBSD newcomers I believe.
What You think about that?
