The more I learn re FreeBSD the more I'm confused, or maybe, what I know and don't know keep changing...maybe that's good.
Does EVERY script in etc/rc.d/ run automatically ?
Or only those listed in etc/rc.conf with "YES" ?
Why can't I turn etc/rc.d/motd OFF so it won't keep modifying /etc/motd with a "NO" in rc.conf ? Seems rc.conf doesn't really have control.
BTW, does everything in /boot/ run automatically by init ?
The man pages are really confusing to me as many of them state that "there are no user variables in this file" but then my system doesnt' even have the files that are supposed to be editted, like etc/default/rc (I forgot the rest...) don't even exist.
Confusing at best.
