Where can a daemon be respawned from? I don't see a inittab file.
Do I just need to create one, or does FreeBSD use something else?
I am trying to use pppd and as soon as the line disconnects, the daemon
dies and does not restart itself. I set it to restart itself on exit,
but it login fails, it still dies and does not run the ip-down file.
TIA.
