 Hello,

 I have my /usr/local partition hosted on an NFS share which is mounted
 at boot. Do you have any theories as to why my various services
 (Apache, Postfix, MySQL) listed in /etc/rc.conf do not start up
 automatically at boot, and I have to do this manually?
 When /usr/local is hosted locally these services start up fine on
 their own at boot time.
 


 You probably need to set early_late_divider.

 rc reads in and orders the scripts in /etc/rc.d before it executes any
 of them, and this list is fixed. When it reaches $early_late_divider, it
 creates a new list that includes the local directory
 obviously /usr/local/etc must be mounted at this point.

 Bear in mind that a local script that's ordered before
 early_late_divider is ignored.

   

Cool, I need to learn about this and, from the looks of things, rcorder.
I suppose I just want to make sure that the /usr/local startup scripts
start last.

Thanks for your help!

 What does /var/log/messages say?  May be that /usr/local isn't
 available when scripts are called.

That's what I'm thinking too... I'll play around the adjusting the
startup order and see if that fixes this, thanks!
