This is what I have in the rcOG portion of the script to bring in the
rc.conf settings:
# Suck in the configuration variables.
if [ -z "${source_rc_confs_defined}" ]; then
if [ -r /etc/defaults/rc.conf ]; then
. /etc/defaults/rc.conf
source_rc_confs
elif [ -r /etc/rc.conf ]; then
. /etc/rc.conf
fi
fi
Any changes I should make to it?
