Description xaker1 2010-09-10 13:10:01 UTC 
We require the ability to change the location of data files with the sa (system accounting)

srv0# grep accounting_file /etc/rc.d/accounting
accounting_file="/var/account/acct"

change to

: ${accounting_file:="/var/account/acct"}

then we can set the file's location in rc.conf

Fix: 

srv0# grep accounting_file /etc/rc.d/accounting
accounting_file="/var/account/acct"

change to

: ${accounting_file:="/var/account/acct"}

then we can set the file's location in rc.conf

Responsible Changed
From-To: freebsd-standards->freebsd-rc

Over to maintainer(s). This patch looks trivial, hopefully this is 
one that can be easily committed.

If anyone tackles this make sure that equivalent changes are made in
/etc/periodic/daily/310.accounting
