A simple shell script like the following will work: #!/bin/sh if [ -z "$2" ]; then echo "Missing action." echo "Usage: $( basename ${0} ) {service} {start|stop|restart|reload|status}" exit 2 elif [ -z "$1" ]; then echo "Missing service name." echo "Usage: $( basename ${0} ) {service} {start|stop|restart|reload|status}" exit 1 fi if [ -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/${1}.sh ]; then runcmd="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/${1}.sh ${2}" elif [ -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/${1} ]; then runcmd="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/${1} ${2}" elif [ -x /etc/rc.d/${1}.sh ]; then runcmd="/etc/rc.d/${1}.sh ${2}" elif [ -x /etc/rc.d/${1} ]; then runcmd="/etc/rc.d/${1} ${2}" else runcmd="" fi if [ -n "${runcmd}" ]; then echo "Running command: ${runcmd}" ${runcmd} retval=$? else echo "No rc.d script found for ${1}" retval=3 fi exit ${retval} I'm pretty sure something like this was discussed on one of the mailing lists in the past year, as well.
