I want the firewall script to >run from boot.   My preference for things like this is to make it follow chkconfig conventions.  Go to /etc/rc.d/init.d and look at any of the other scripts there.  You'll find a line like "chkconfig: 345 95 5" in there.  This tells the init process that this applies to run levels 3, 4, and 5, that it starts at priority 95 and stops at priority 5.  These latter two tell the system at what point in the boot and shutdown your script should run.  Then, simply do a "chkconfig firewalls on"  and all the links will be created for you and it will be easy for you to see which scripts will run at boot/shutdown down with a "chkconfig --list" command.   Cheers,     .../Ed   Ed Wilts Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: Paal Marker To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2002 3:11 AM Subject: Firewall script and user permissions
