check out the /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory. If you make a script in the form of script.sh they will be called on to start at boot time. if you have apache, dnetc, ups utils, etc... you can see how other apps are using it. -Otter }-----Original Message----- }From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG }[mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of }Drew Tomlinson }Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2000 6:06 PM }To: FreeBSD Questions (E-mail) }Subject: URLs For Script Intro for Newbie } } }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.
