RedHat uses BSD-style init, and Debian uses SysV-style init. This means that Debian puts one thing in each file, i.e. /etc/init.d/mysql starts the MySQL server, et. al. To make another program start automatically, modify the /etc/init.d/skeleton and save it as /etc/init.d/<programname> Then, use update-rc.d to install your init-script where you want. -- Stephen Pitts [EMAIL PROTECTED] webmaster - http://www.mschess.org
