[-- Attachment #1 --] 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.
