I haven't seen an answer to this go by, so here is my meager hint: I had a similar problem a month or to ago, and I finally found a message buried somewhere in a log file that said something to the effect that the script couldn't be started during the boot process because it was trying to attach to the console. I had to arrange things so that the background process was not attempting to attach to the console. I'm sorry I don't remember more details. I hope this at least gets you pointed in the right direction. - Bob > > Date: Sat, 12 Aug 2000 04:11:10 +0300 > From: "Ali Soylu" <alisoylu@yahoo.com> > Subject: rc.d startup > > I have a program that I need to run at startup, so I added a startup script in > /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ to start up the program.
