I know, i know, but there isn't, in the openbsd faq, something tell us
to NEVER mess with /etc/rc and /etc/rc.conf, and use only rc.conf.local
and rc.local? Looks even simpler than RTFM, it looks like RTFF(AQ). :).
Erwin, i was new to openbsd some years ago, and committed some of the
mistakes you made also. But never said it was a bug. And even if it was,
apropos bug would reveal sendbug(1), that explains the procedure for bug
reporting one, and sending a possible bug(it wasn't) to misc, isn't the
right way to do it. I recommend you man intro before anything.
My 2 cents,
