switchctl from hostname.switch0 fails

[bentley]

From my router:

starting network
em0: no link .... got link
em0: bound to 192.168.0.8 from 192.168.0.1 (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX)
switchctl: connect: /var/run/switchd.sock: Connection refused

I guess this is because switchd doesn’t start until later in the boot process:

starting network daemons: sshd switchd dhcpd smtpd sndiod.

Clients work correctly for me if I run switchctl from rc.local instead.

I agree, switchctl should not be in hostname.if

Do your clients work when connected by crontab?

@reboot      chmod 1777 /tmp; switchctl connect /dev/switch0

Connecting to switch from rc.local or crontab should fix this issue.
Removed switchctl from hostname.switch0 for proper sh /etc/netstart switch0 reset.

Thank you.
