9.1. Hmm, where are my familiar BSD system files ? What's this /etc/sysconfig thing?

As for 2.0.5R, the primary configuration file is /etc/sysconfig. All the options are to be specified in this one and the other one (/etc/rc and /etc/netstart) just include it.

Look in the /etc/sysconfig file and change the value to match your system. This file is filled with comments to show what to put in there.

The /etc/rc.local is here as always and is the place to put additional services like INN or a http server.

The /etc/rc.serial is for serial port initialization (e.g. locking the port characterictics, and so on.).

The /etc/rc.i386 is for Intel-specifics setting like the iBCS2 emulation.
