yeah. thanks guys. i'm basically coming from a bsd/os background, so i was hoping there was something equivalent to /etc/virtualip, but that start_if.<dev> is close enough. so i basically wrote some thing like that and appended the output to that file, but i can actually have the script in the file itself? is that right? thanks -mike On Mon, 12 Sep 2005, Jeff at NorrisTechs wrote: > > Mike. > > If you wanted to do it in bash, here's a script you can call using > /usr/local/etc/rc.d/999myalias.sh > > #!/usr/local/bin/bash > # save to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/999myalias.sh > # chmod 755 > # BLAH BLAH BLAH....
