>Description:
On one of my Linux systems using rcorder and rc.subr, the rc scripts
were ran again and again without stop.
Researching this I found it was doing "rc keygen" so /etc/rc
was starting again each time.
This is because security/openssh/files/sshd.sh
has "$0 keygen" and $0 was not set to /etc/rc.d/sshd.
I see that the real rc.d/sshd script Revision 1.16 gets rid of that
"Don't assume that $0 is this script."
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
The fix would be to check for rc.subr again and use
"run_rc_command keygen" instead.
Also, the check for /etc/rc.d directory can be removed
since it checks for a file in the directory after anyways.
