Hello, decided to try freebsd FreeBSD for a media server and loving it but running into one little snag.
So I installed sabnzbd from the ports system with portsnap, and it saved the startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sabnzbd.
I then added
to /etc/rc.conf.
Then I rebooted and I didn't see anything in the boot saying starting sabnzbd (saw starting sshd etc).
Lastly losing hope I moved it to /etc/rc.d/sabnzbd and on next reboot it worked fine, did I miss something? On Ubuntu Server I used to have to do rc-update but that doesn't seem to be the case, just want to make sure I'm not missing anything silly like when I got confused about not being able to use nano after downloading it, turns out i had to use rehash.
Also is there any danger in the file being in /etc/rc.d/ instead of /usr/local/etc/rc.d/?
Anyway would feel better if I could understand why it doesn't seem to detect anything in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ but does in /etc/rc.d/.
Thank you very much, lovingfreebsd FreeBSD so far
