Perhaps someone considers it "deprecated", but the script itself is silent on the issue. Here is /etc/rc.local from my up-to-date Sid system: #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. exit 0 > Would someone be so kind as to tell me what the current, preferred > location for such commands is? Since rc.local is excuted last and there are times when a custon local script may need to run earlier, I've simply created my scripts in /usr/local/etc/init.d and then created symlinks into the /etc/rc.* directories as needed. It has worked very well for me. - Nate >> -- Wireless | Amateur Radio Station N0NB | Successfully Microsoft Amateur radio exams; ham radio; Linux info @ | free since January 1998. http://www.qsl.net/n0nb/ | "Debian, the choice of My Kawasaki KZ-650 SR @ | a GNU generation!" http://www.networksplus.net/n0nb/ | http://www.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
