Re: Why does modifying /etc/rc.d have to so complex

[Rick Warner]

The model of startup scripts is old, based on AT&T System V.  It is used
by many modern UNIX variants - SunOS 5.x ('Solaris'), HP-UX 10.x/11.x,
etc.  RedHat merely models this rather than the Berkeley style of startup
scripts.  Once you get used to it, it is more powerful and flexible than
the Berkeley model.
