That worked like a charm.
While doing that, I also noticed that the ddclient file did not have a .sh extension like all the other files in that directory. I renamed it to ddclient.sh, rebooted the server, and both httpd and ddclient are auto-starting now.
Many thanks for your help.
Brian

Might try
chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/httpdstart.sh
ciao,

Subject: Need Apache and ddclient to start at boot
I have a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.5 on my server. I have installed Apache and ddclient (Dynamic DNS app) installed. I can manually start each of these applications, but I can not get them to start automatically. I placed a copy of the ddclient script in the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ directory, but it doesnt start. I have to manually go to that directory and run that file to start it.
As far as Apache, I created a file called httpdstart.sh, used an editor and placed:
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start
inside the file, and also put it in the rc.d directory. It doesnt start either, but I assume that is because of something I am doing wrong.
Can someone enlighten me on the proper procedure for doing this?
Thanks,
Brian T.
