Some few more details about BSD.
Take into consideration if you need sudo! BSD is something like the grandpa of apple and millions of apple users complain about sudo, not knowing what is happening. It sets your changes made back, a real setback. In my linux distro I disabled sudo without any problem.In my BSD I am figuring out what to do.

The files

Code:

 /etc/rc.conf

and

Code:

 /etc/rc.shutdown

a likely to be important for your special configuration, server or desktop.

If you need an application that is not in the ports (the programms bundle) you download the tar-ball archive and unpack it to the users jail (account).

You may join one of those BSD-forums, but my experience was, they treat you quite snobbish, with the stiff upper lip, you were not born to use BSD or even Unix, unless you are one of these masters of the universe.

And once again, the BSD handbook is much better than most of the manpages, which are probably made to be read only by the developers.

So have fun, don't give up, it is worth it. Thumbs up!

there is one more important thing you should know about BSD filessystem. If you connect an external drive such like a usb-stick or an external usb-HDD be aware to make this item be formatted in msdos fat32. My ugly expierience last year told me that ext2/3/4 do not communicate with UFS or ZFS, whatever you try. I am using as well usb-sticks and an external HDD, with fat32, it works smoothly.
So good luck discovering the possibilities of BSD, it is good.

networkd

networkd(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					       networkd(8)

NAME

     networkd -- network daemon.

SYNOPSIS

     networkd

DESCRIPTION

     networkd is a launch-on-demand daemon that performs opreations on behalf of code in libystem_network, a component of libSystem.

     networkd has no user-specifiable command-line argument, and users should not run networkd manually.

   LOGGING
     There are several methods with which to examine networkd's internal state for debugging and diagnostic purposes. The syslog(1) logging levels
     map as follows:

	   Error - Error messages
	   Warning - Non-fatal concerns
	   Notice - Internal state messages
	   Info - Informational messages

     By default, only log level Notice through Error is logged.

     Syslog may be used to modify the mask which logging levels are logged.  For example, to enable log levels Emergency - Debug :

	   % sudo syslog -c networkd -d

     The networkd settings file may also be used to change the log level.  This method will add some additional logging that may be missing using
     the syslog technique listed above. This method is also persistent across runs of networkd For example, to enable log levels Emergency (1)
     through Debug (7):

	   % sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd networkd_log_level -int 7

     The networkd settings file may also be used to change the log level for code in libsystem_network. For example, to enable log levels Emer-
     gency (1) through Debug (7) for libsystem_network code:

	   % sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd libnetcore_log_level -int 7

     A SIGINFO signal will dump a snapshot summary of the internal state to the system log at log level NOTICE :

	   % sudo killall -INFO networkd

FILES

     /usr/libexec/networkd
	 The binary.

     /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.networkd.plist
	 The launchd.plist(5) controlling the networkd job.

     /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkd.plist
	 An optional preferences file read by networkd.

BUGS

     networkd bugs are tracked in Apple Radar component "networkd".

HISTORY

     networkd first appeared in Mac OS X 10.7.
