I've had FBSD installed for a couple of months now and have decided that to further my experience with it I need to start learning about scripts. I assume I need to learn about the standard /bin/sh shell (<- is this the correct term?). Can anyone recommend reading or URLs for the beginner? I have experience with DOS batch file and OpenVMS command procedures so any reference that makes comparisons with those operating systems would be extra helpful. My immediate need is to write a script that starts my dynamic IP service client to place in rc.d. If someone could help me with this I'd be most appreciative. To start it from the command line, I just su to root and type "dynipclient". How do I put this in a script?
