On 5.2.1-RELEASE-p1, in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, I have scripts that start my MySQL database, and that start my Courier-IMAP daemons. When the scripts for courier run, one of the first things they do is start authdaemond, which should fire up several authdaemond.mysql processes and then they start the imap daemons. On reboot, the imap daemons are running, but the authdaemond.mysql processes aren't. If I stop the imap script, and re-run it, everything starts up just fine. I suspect that the database isn't getting started before the imap scripts are run. So, I moved the database startup script to /etc/rc.d, but on reboot, the database wasn't started. I had hoped moving it to /etc/rc.d might start it earlier in the boot process. Suggestions? TIA. -ste
