Yes it is. The initscripts themselves have such a mechanism, using the before and after statements, for example making sure that network services are started after the network is brought up. You can add your own rules to the daemons' config files in /etc/conf.d or to /etc/rc.conf. To have bitlbee start after xdm either add rc_after="xdm" to /etc/conf.d/bitlbee or put rc_bitlbee_after="xdm" in /etc/rc.conf. Both have the same effect, it depends on whether you want to put all these settings together or in the individual services' config files. -- Neil Bothwick Tact is for people who don't understand sarcasm.
