That's not how it works. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The files in /etc/conf.d are not "included" in config files at all, |
| 19 |
they are arguments used when the app is launched. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
For example, sshd: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
SSHD_CONFDIR="/etc/ssh" |
| 24 |
SSHD_OPTS="" |
| 25 |
SSHD_PIDFILE="/var/run/sshd.pid" |
| 26 |
SSHD_BINARY="/usr/sbin/sshd" |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
None of those items can go in sshd_config except maybe the pid file, |
| 29 |
but that can be specified on the command-line. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
The Gentoo init system reads conf.d and uses the info in it to |
| 32 |
determine hwo to launch the app. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
There is other stuff in /etc/conf.d not related to specific daemons, |
| 35 |
but the same principle applies - the system reads the files and does |
| 36 |
the appropriate thing at strat-up. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I believe you may have the intent of conf.d and env.d confused? |
