Admin-visible differences between 4.10 and 5.3

2004-10-31 Thread Paul Hoffman
Greetings again. At one point, I think I heard that there was going 
to be a big change in the bootup (rc.foo) stuff in FreeBSD 5, but I 
don't see anything about that in the Early Adopter Guide. Assuming 
that I'm quite comfortable with day-to-day system administration 
under FreeBSD 4 but want to start using 5 on new systems when 5.3 
comes out, what do I need to know?

Maybe this helps.

Bingo, that is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
Are there any other admin-visible changes in 5.3 I should be looking for?
