If your expectation is that someone else is going to write the startup script for you, that's probably not realistic. The web page you referred to has the basics to get you started. Since your port has slightly more complex requirements you probably want to read the other web page referenced in the first paragraph, as well as the man pages that are also referenced. hope this helps, Doug -- ... and that's just a little bit of history repeating. -- Propellerheads Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/
