rc(8)
NAME
rc − command script for system initialization
SYNTAX
/etc/rc
DESCRIPTION
The rc command script initializes the system when entering multi-user mode.
The rc file is invoked when a single user shell terminates. For further information, see init(8). The rc command file starts all of the daemons on the system, preserves editor files, and clears the temporary directory /tmp. The rc file also mounts the file systems listed in /etc/fstab and defines the system’s hostname using hostname(1). For further information, see fstab (5).
