<![CDATA[Start on boot of services without rc file]]>Hi!

The pfsense initiates services/packeges installed that they do not have an rc file defined? As this:

<service><name>ANYSERVICE</name>
<description>ANYDESC</description>
<executable>execfile</executable>
<startcmd>mwexec_bg('/usr/sbin/anyexec');</startcmd>
<enable>yes</enable></service>

If no, i suggest that all the services with tag enable defined and without rc file are initiated on bootup.
