I believe midmand is started in the /etc/rc.tcpip script, go to bottom of
script and comment out the lines that start midmand.

Is there a way to keep the midmand daemon from starting at startup? I'm
thinking that my NWays daemons might not start right at reboot because
initially midmand is running, and therefore trapd doesn't start. I thought
this might be what is causing them to reach an UNSTARTABLE state...
Once I stop midmand, trapd is able to run. But my NWays daemons are all in
an unstartable state....
Thanks for your time!
