<p>I also agree about disabling auto-start after installation.</p><p>But by the way, are we talking only about auto-starting after first installation or also after upgrade ?</p><p style>Under Solaris 10, autostart_daemons=no will only prevent daemons from auto-starting at first installation.

<p style>I personnally like this behaviour (and in fact proposed the patch for it): after I correctly configured a service, I prefer it to be automatically restarted on upgrade, but I put the subject on the table so we're sure to agree on the same thing.</p>

We're currently defaulting to automatically start services after<br>
installation. For example, when you install MySQL packages, the<br>
database starts up without any additional commands. For MySQL this is<br>
harmless enough, but as a general rule it goes against intuitions and<br>
expectations of sysadmins.<br>
<br>
I propose that we change the default to not start services by default.<br>

I fully agree on that. I've set on all my machines the autostart to "no" and as most admins, I don't like services starting automatically. Most package repositories are working this way.<br>
<br>
Our target are not the end-users. Our users are admins and even those who using the first time Solaris and OpenCSW can handle services, that do not start automatically.<br>
