OT: Slackware: Starting Servers at Boot
I have been using FreeBSD for so long I forgot how to configure services and startup. I now also have a Slack box. What file do I edit to so that services like named start automagically? I am aware lines can be uncommented in inetd.conf, but I want the service running without spawning from inetd.

After more searching it turns out that all that one needs to do is make the rc.bind executable in the rc.d directory. Wow, that is as straight forward as it comes.

Chris might be dated info but GNU/Linux usually has sep directory for each run level, so you can have one without X for example. pretty sure ntsysv is a front end to rc directories with toggle on-off executable bit ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
