Indeed it does, and it clearly states that (daemon_flags) "can be _overridden_ by site-specific values provided in rc.conf.local". (emphasis on overridden by me) Also, description of daemon_flags says they are "additional arguments to call the daemon with. These will be _appended_ to any mandatory arguments already contained in the daemon variable defined in the control script." (emphasis on appended by me) Now, looking back, when I know how it works, it all looks logical. Let's take for example isc_named rc script: daemon="/usr/local/sbin/named" daemon_flags="-t /var/named -u _bind -U 4" So we have daemon script, to which daemon_flags are _appended_. Next, we can _override_ them in rc.conf.local: pkg_scripts= isc_named isc_named_flags="-4 -t /var/named -u _bind -U 4" I guess a few lines in http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq10.html#rc regarding this would have saved me an hour or two :) Sorry for the fuss and thanks. -- Before enlightenment - chop wood, draw water.
