How to start rc script after sshd starts?

[Vinny Abello]

Hello,

I think this is a relatively easy question to answer but couldn't find anything after some searching.

I'm running:

FreeBSD engbox.tellurian.net 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #0: Sat Jan 27 00:37:31 EST 2007

(yeah, pretty recent as of this email) :)

I have a daemon that apparently does a check using ssh-keyscan against the loopback address when it starts up. The problem I have is that sshd is not started when the script runs to start this daemon, so it fails and I end up having to start it manually. What is the recommended way to get this script to start after sshd has started up? I was hoping to not have to hack any rc scripts up from their defaults for starting up the system if possible. It's a standard rc script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. If it matters, the daemon is smokeping. I can stop it from using ssh-keyscan completely as I really don't use the probe at all in smokeping but I'm curious as to the proper way of making this work.

Any pointers are appreciated.

Thanks!
