Hi all,

I needed to enable the DHCP server on the machine that's going to
become my OpenBSD/pf firewall/router/NAT, and the directions said to
put this:

# echo 'dhcpd_flags=""' >>/etc/rc.conf.local

On my machine there was no rc.conf.local, just an rc.local, so I put it
there, and no joy, dhcpd didn't start on boot. So I made an
rc.conf.local, put that line in the new file, and bang, it started on
boot.

Is /etc/rc.local just some artifact I should ignore, or does it
actually have a purpose?

Thanks,

SteveT
