So, like Anthony Schneider was saying to me just the other day:

So cleverly, I did this and it didn't work.
Then I got to thinking...

    # sysctl kern.securelevel
    kern.securelevel: 1

Uh oh. Hack rc.conf, back down to -1...

    # chflags noschg ypchfn

And finally.

    # chmod -x ypchfn

Woo hoo!

OK, so I feel a bit better now... :-)
