I referred to "this line" and said "copy it." I thought that
would be clear. I certainly did not mean to tell him to copy
the entire file, and I hope he did not understand it this way.
I did intend, however, to tell him one place he could look to solve
similar problems in the future--/etc/defaults/rc.conf. This is
in my view a better response than just providing a line to put
in /etc/rc.conf that seems to come from nowhere.
Anyway, the question should have been sent to -questions.
