- Remember that the script has no startup environment. All files/ programs must be specified with full pathnames - Check your bootup message to see if any errors are coming from the script - Maybe you could post the script so we could see if something obvious is wrong - You could put the startup line in /etc/rc.conf or /etc/rc or any number of other startup files. It's not a good idea, but it works. - Your best bet is to figure out what's wrong with the startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and fix it.
