>Description:

Chapter 4 of the Porter's Handbook ("Slow Porting") should
educate users how to write rc.subr start/stop scripts.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:

Maybe it is sufficient to mention that a sample is installed at

  /usr/local/share/examples/rc_subr

OTOH since this is only true for freeBSD 4.x, the content should
be migrated to the Porter's Handbook.

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed 
State-Changed-By: pav 
State-Changed-When: Thu Nov 10 09:02:24 GMT 2005 
State-Changed-Why:  
I wrote a (rather short) section to chapter 6, detailing USE_RC_SUBR and 
USE_RCORDER knobs, giving port specific issues and referring to base system 
rcng docs for the rest.
