    Definition of the problem:
    Installed applications daemons which have their startup scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ are
    not starting during system boot as they should (only one script is starting - apache2).

    Description of the problem:
    I had very good working server at FBSD 5.2.1 with several applications (such as apache2,
    mysql, pureftpd, postfix, saslauth) and I have upgraded it one day, due to security advisories
    of FBSD developers, and application advisories due to portaudit advisories.
    Buildworld and whole process of upgrading system from cvsup goes well, portupgrade of applications
    also. And after that I discovered, that upgraded applications does not start during system boot.
    I chcecked my srcipts permissions (fine), same scripts (fine too - if I run any script from
    commandline after the system start, it boots the proper daemon nicely) and config files of
    applications (fine too).
    After that I started to read forums, and google, then find out that daemons now needs declarations
    in /etc/rc.conf so I added them. Still nothing. I finished with that I added the scripts at the end
    of the only starting script which is apache2 script, but this is *NOT* proper solution, even
    if daemons are working.
    Also, I dont see anything uncommon content in any system log.
    Can *anybody* give me *any* hint/tip or tell me what I did wrong? Im fightng with that for almost
    two weeks right now, and that affects all 3 of my machines.

    System details:

    rc.conf:
    apache2_enable="YES"
    oidentd_enable="YES"
    mysqld_enable="YES"
    pureftpd_enable="YES"

    pure-ftpd-1.0.19
    postfix-2.1.3,1
    cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.18_2

    #!/bin/sh

    # PROVIDE: pureftpd

    # KEYWORD: FreeBSD shutdown

    #
    # Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable pure-ftpd:
    #
    # pureftpd_enable="YES"
    #

    . /etc/rc.subr

    name=pureftpd
    rcvar=`set_rcvar`

    command=/usr/local/sbin/pure-config.pl
    pureftpd_config=${pureftpd_config:-"/usr/local/etc/pure-ftpd.conf"}
    required_files=${pureftpd_config}
    pidfile=/var/run/pure-ftpd.pid
    procname=pure-ftpd

    pureftpd_enable="YES"
    command_args=${pureftpd_config}
