can i use backticks in rc.conf? Basically i want a standard rc.conf and want to bind rsync to a specific ip
hence i want this in my rc.conf rsyncd_flags="--config=/etc/rsyncd.conf --address="` ifconfig bce1 | grep inet | awk '{print $2}'` it works fine from the shell, however on reboot the address section doesnt expand, or rather it goes blank eg Jul 20 16:56:37 X root: /etc/rc: DEBUG: run_rc_command: doit: /usr/local/bin/rsync --config=/etc/rsyncd.conf --address= --daemon _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
