pkg rc.d scripts

B

biggsy

I'm very new to this aspect of FreeBSD but trying to understand it better.

After a recent update from 12.2 to 12.3-R, (on the path to 13-RELEASE) I was trying to understand why openbgpd was suddenly being shut down before fail2ban, causing the latter to complain that it couldn't find openbgp.sock.

After a lot of reading, I changed the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openbgpd script to include # BEFORE: fail2ban and that seems to have had the desired effect.

However, after looking at the output from rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* I noticed the output:
rcorder: requirement `openbgpd' in file `/usr/local/etc/rc.d/fail2ban' has no providers. Something else to learn about.

From there I started to look at /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openbgpd again and noticed it said # PROVIDE: bgpd dynamicrouting

The question is: Should the statement have read # PROVIDE: openbgpd dynamicrouting?
In other words, should the name of the script match the name in the # PROVIDE statement, or am I completely misunderstanding this?

Many thanks.
 
Having worked out that I was misunderstanding the the structure of these scripts and fixed my error, I upgraded to 13.0-RELEASE.

After updating packages, I found that the openbgpd script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d had lost my change. That's OK but now, after redoing that change, I'm getting a mismatched checksum in the daily security report.

Is that to be expected? Even for a file that is likely to be changed?

If the file changed, yes.

Code: 
% pkg provides /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openbgpd
