When I do a system shutdown darkstat isn't writing it's memory to disk
as it should. If I do a stop (darkstat stop) from within
/usr/local/etc/rc.d it does write the data file and picks it up when I
start it again.

Shutdown is running the rc.d script, I've added a df just to make sure
the filesystems are still mounted.

Any suggestions on where to look next?

I'm running FreeBSD 7.1.

What do you have for darkstat_flags in /etc/rc.conf?

I've just now added "--import darkstat.db --export darkstat.db" and it
seems to work starting and stopping the script, but I haven't done a
full shutdown or restart yet.

If you're using reboot(8) to restart, it doesn't run the shutdown
scripts (I think), where shutdown -r now does.

# darkstat
darkstat_enable="YES"
darkstat_interface="fxp0" # change to suit your configuration
darkstat_dir="/var/run/darkstat"
darkstat_pidname="darkstat.pid"
darkstat_dropuser="nobody"
darkstat_flags="-p 10667 -l 90.155.77.208/255.255.255.240 --daylog
daylog --import datafxp0 --export datafxp0"

I know it's running the script because I see the df I put in it on both
shutdown and reboot in the console.log.

It works when running the script here as well, it just doesn't create
the datafxp0 file on shutdown. If I run the script it creates the file
on shutdown, loads it on restart but a reboot removes the file.

Just tested, and no history on startup. Probably best to start with the
port maintainer.

At least I now know it's not just me so I will contact the port
maintainer, thanks.
