/usr/src/UPDATING has: 20000907: Networking defaults have been tightened. Anybody upgrading /etc/defaults/rc.conf needs to add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf if they want to have the same setup afterwards (unless the variables already are set, of course): # Enable network daemons for user convenience. inetd_enable="YES" portmap_enable="YES" sendmail_enable="YES" And yet /etc/defaults/rc.conf still lists inetd_enable, portmap_enable, and sendmail_enable as "YES". It would appear an MFC never happened, and networking defaults was never "tightened." Should either UPDATING or /etc/defaults/rc.conf be changed before 4.2-RELEASE? Fix: Either change the relavant lines in /etc/defaults/rc.conf to "NO", or add an entry to /usr/src/UPDATING indicating the network defaults was actually never changed. How-To-Repeat: A few lines down in /usr/src/UPDATING, and a simple grep of /etc/defaults/rc.conf will confirm.
