Thanks for trying to answer Dale, but you are missing the point of my |
17 |
question. |
18 |
|
19 |
I'm not asking about that one specific setting, I'm asking about ALL of |
20 |
the settings in that file. |
21 |
|
22 |
Again - are the commented out example settings the *default* settings? |
23 |
Or, do I need to *uncomment* them in order to set them to the setting as |
24 |
shown in the example *commented* setting? |
25 |
|
26 |
My point also is that neither the comments in the header for rc.conf nor |
27 |
any of the comments for each section explicitly say what the *defaults* |
28 |
*will* *be*, and that is, imnsho, a really bad thing to leave to the |
29 |
imagination, especially for important config files like rc.conf (where a |
30 |
mistake can leave you with an unbootable system). |
