3.5.2 `/etc/rc'

There's only NIS left, for which there isn't a flag yet. If you want to use NIS, look for the following lines in `/etc/rc' and remove the #s at the beginning of the lines:

#if [ -f /usr/sbin/ypbind -a -d /var/yp ]; then
#	echo -n ' ypbind';		ypbind
#fi

This is only started if the directory `/var/yp' exists, so be sure to mkdir it. Also, see section 3.4.3 Network Information Service (NIS).

Similar to the NIS-start above, all the network services and daemons are started from `/etc/rc', so you may want to have a look to get a picture of how the daemons are started, and which options are used. Read the corresponding man-pages for further information.
