Hello, First, my question: Is there a standard way to boot without network services and then to start them all later ?
Second, the situation: I've got a laptop running FreeBSD 7 fine. By default it boots without enabling network interface, later I manually run /etc/rc.d/netif start ath0 and /etc/rc.d/routing start if needed. I've got this lines in /etc/rc.conf: # network_interfaces="lo0" ifconfig_ath0="inet 192.168.X.Y netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid thessid" # sshd_enable="YES" ntpdate_enable="YES" ntpdate_flags="-4 -b" ntpdate_hosts="ntpd-server" There's two problems with this configuration: - At boot time ntpdate try to contact the ntpd-server but naturaly it fails (no network). - sshd always runs even if there's no network. So must I re-invent the wheel or is there a better way to do it. Thanks in advance for any help.
