28.Dt RC.CONF 5
29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm rc.conf
32.Nd system configuration information
33.Sh DESCRIPTION
34The file
35.Nm
36contains descriptive information about the local host name, configuration
37details for any potential network interfaces and which services should be
38started up at system initial boot time.
39In new installations, the
40.Nm
41file is generally initialized by the system installation utility,
42.Xr sysinstall 8 .
43.Pp
44The purpose of
45.Nm
46is not to run commands or perform system startup actions
47directly.
48Instead, it is included by the
49various generic startup scripts in
50.Pa /etc
51which conditionalize their
52internal actions according to the settings found there.
53.Pp
54The
55.Pa /etc/rc.conf
56file is included from the file
57.Pa /etc/defaults/rc.conf ,
58which specifies the default settings for all the available options.
59Options need only be specified in
60.Pa /etc/rc.conf
61when the system administrator wishes to override these defaults.
62The file
63.Pa /etc/rc.conf.local
64is used to override settings in
65.Pa /etc/rc.conf
66for historical reasons.
67See the
68.Va rc_conf_files
69variable below.
70.Pp
71The following list provides a name and short description for each
72variable that can be set in the
73.Nm
74file:

76.It Va rc_debug
77.Pq Vt bool
78If set to
79.Dq Li YES ,
80enable output of debug messages from rc scripts.
81This variable can be helpful in diagnosing mistakes when
82editing or integrating new scripts.
83Beware that this produces copious output to the terminal and
84.Xr syslog 3 .
85.It Va rc_info
86.Pq Vt bool
87If set to
88.Dq Li NO ,
89disable informational messages from the rc scripts.

92an error occurs.
93.It Va swapfile
94.Pq Vt str
95If set to

214Set the delay before starting
215.Xr dhclient 8

217.Pa /etc/pccard_ether
218script.
219This defaults to 5 seconds to work around a bug in the
220.Xr ed 4
221driver which can lead to system hangs when using some newer
222.Xr ed 4
223based cards.
224.It Va removable_interfaces

261file system.
262Always happens if set to
263.Dq Li YES
264and never happens if set to
265.Dq Li NO .
266If set to anything else, a memory file system is created if

866.It Va network_interfaces
867.Pq Vt str
868Set to the list of network interfaces to configure on this host.
869For example, if the only network devices in the system are the loopback
870device
871.Pq Li lo0
872and a NIC using the
873.Xr ed 4
874driver,
875this could be set to
876.Dq Li "lo0 ed0" .
877An
878.Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
879variable is also assumed to exist for each value of
880.Ar interface .
881It is also possible to add IP alias entries here in cases where
882multiple IP addresses registered against a single interface
883are desired.
884Assuming that the interface in question was
885.Li ed0 ,
886it might look
887something like this:
888.Bd -literal
889ifconfig_ed0_alias0="inet 127.0.0.253 netmask 0xffffffff"
890ifconfig_ed0_alias1="inet 127.0.0.254 netmask 0xffffffff"
891.Ed
892.Pp
893And so on.
894For each
895.Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns Va _alias Ns Aq Ar n
896entry that is found,
897its contents are passed to
898.Xr ifconfig 8 .
899Execution stops at the first unsuccessful access, so if
900something like this is present:
901.Bd -literal

903ifconfig_ed0_alias1="inet 127.0.0.252 netmask 0xffffffff"

905ifconfig_ed0_alias4="inet 127.0.0.254 netmask 0xffffffff"
906.Ed
907.Pp
908Then note that alias4 would
909.Em not
910be added since the search would
911stop with the missing alias3 entry.
912.Pp
913If the
914.Pa /etc/start_if. Ns Aq Ar interface
915file is present, it is read and executed by the
916.Xr sh 1
917interpreter
918before configuring the interface as specified in the
919.Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
920and
921.Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns Va _alias Ns Aq Ar n
922variables.
923.Pp
924It is possible to bring up an interface with DHCP by setting the
925.Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
926variable to
927.Dq Li DHCP .
928For instance, to initialize the
929.Li ed0
930device via DHCP,
931it is possible to use something like:
932.Bd -literal
933ifconfig_ed0="DHCP"
934.Ed
935.It Va ipv6_network_interfaces
936.Pq Vt str
937This is the IPv6 equivalent of
938.Va network_interfaces .
939Instead of setting the ifconfig variables as
940.Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
941they should be set as
942.Va ipv6_ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface .
943Aliases should be set as
944.Va ipv6_ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns Va _alias Ns Aq Ar n .
945.Va ipv6_prefix_ Ns Aq Ar interface
946does something.
947Interfaces that do not have a
948.Va ipv6_ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
949setting will be auto configured by
950.Xr rtsol 8
951if the
952.Va ipv6_gateway_enable
953is set to
954.Dq Li NO .
955Note that the IPv6 networking code does not support the

957files.
958.It Va ipv6_default_interface
959.Pq Vt str
960If not set to

962this is the default output interface for scoped addresses.
963Now this works only for IPv6 link local multicast addresses.
964.It Va cloned_interfaces
965.Pq Vt str
966Set to the list of clonable network interfaces to create on this host.
967Entries in

971for configuration.
972.It Va gif_interfaces
973.Pq Vt str
974Set to the list of
975.Xr gif 4
976tunnel interfaces to configure on this host.
977A
978.Va gifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
979variable is assumed to exist for each value of
980.Ar interface .
981The value of this variable is used to configure the link layer of the
982tunnel according to the syntax of the
983.Cm tunnel
984option to
985.Xr ifconfig 8 .
986Additionally, this option ensures that each listed interface is created
987via the
988.Cm create
989option to
990.Xr ifconfig 8
991before attempting to configure it.
992.It Va sppp_interfaces
993.Pq Vt str
994Set to the list of
995.Xr sppp 4
996interfaces to configure on this host.
997A
998.Va spppconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
999variable is assumed to exist for each value of
1000.Ar interface .
1001Each interface should also be configured by a general
1002.Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1003setting.
1004Refer to

1054The files will be read in the order in which they are specified and should
1055include the full path to the file.

1097.Pq Vt int
1098The amount of time in seconds to sleep before starting a background
1099.Xr fsck 8 .
1100It defaults to sixty seconds to allow large applications such as

28.Dt RC.CONF 5
29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm rc.conf
32.Nd system configuration information
33.Sh DESCRIPTION
34The file
35.Nm
36contains descriptive information about the local host name, configuration
37details for any potential network interfaces and which services should be
38started up at system initial boot time.
39In new installations, the
40.Nm
41file is generally initialized by the system installation utility,
42.Xr sysinstall 8 .
43.Pp
44The purpose of
45.Nm
46is not to run commands or perform system startup actions
47directly.
48Instead, it is included by the
49various generic startup scripts in
50.Pa /etc
51which conditionalize their
52internal actions according to the settings found there.
53.Pp
54The
55.Pa /etc/rc.conf
56file is included from the file
57.Pa /etc/defaults/rc.conf ,
58which specifies the default settings for all the available options.
59Options need only be specified in
60.Pa /etc/rc.conf
61when the system administrator wishes to override these defaults.
62The file
63.Pa /etc/rc.conf.local
64is used to override settings in
65.Pa /etc/rc.conf
66for historical reasons.
67See the
68.Va rc_conf_files
69variable below.
70.Pp
71The following list provides a name and short description for each
72variable that can be set in the
73.Nm
74file:

76.It Va rc_debug
77.Pq Vt bool
78If set to

84.Xr syslog 3 .
85.It Va rc_info
86.Pq Vt bool
87If set to

2259It should also be noted that while this is enabled, any
