I installed CUPS from pkgin and there is no script in /etc/rc.d to start it.
Should there be one?
The computer is a laptop; usually it's at home, and I'll want to print on the
printer connected to chausie, which also has CUPS. I don't know if, when I'm
away, I'll want to print on a printer local to where I am, or on the one on
chausie. Should I tell chausie to allow printing from the local network, or
forward a port from dogla to chausie's port 631? The latter is how I read my
mail when away; a port on dogla is forwarded to chausie's IMAP port, and
kmail and thunderbird both are set up to read mail on the port.
Check if there are scripts in /usr/pkg/share/examples/rc.d.
