Description Gerhard Schmidt 2004-08-03 08:50:27 UTC
i´ve try to set up an pxeboot for automatic installation of my FreeBSD
systems. Installing works without a problem.
  
To do the custom setup I need for my servers, I have created a package
and a post-install script for this package. The post Install script does
some changes to /etc/rc.conf. I initializes a second network device and
activates some auf the installed packages. That works fine.
  
The script also add sshd_enabled="YES" to /etc/rc.conf.
  
When i do a cat /etc/rc.conf from the holographic shell everything seems
OK but after reboot some of the additions are gone (some not all)
  
The lines missing are
  
inetd_enable="YES"
keymap="german.iso"
nfs_client_enable="YES"
ntpdate_enable="YES"
ntpdate_flags="..."
rpcbind_enable="YES"
sshd_enable="YES"
usbd_enable="YES"
  
the lines for the second Networkdevice and activation of the installed
packages remain in the rc.conf.

Fix:
