If I add a daemon to rc.conf, how can I then pass arguments to it?

Eg

DAEMONS = (sshd mongodb ...)

How can I pass --replSet to the mongodb daemon?

Answer 1

I don't think you pass anything, it calls the daemon from /etc/rc.d/ so you'd edit that script with the args.

EDIT: here are some links that explain:

Answer 2

You should try to set this behaviour in /etc/mongodb.conf
