All those init.d scripts do about 95% the same thing, all hacked together in shell. Most of them are probably just slightly edited versions of some few paleo-scripts. Set the location of the pid file, set the path of the executable, set the command line flags/options, maybe change some flags/options based on some options in another file like /etc/sysconfig/daemon_name (also shell commands which are just executed inline), then the start/stop/reload/restart/status case statements. And the dependencies of course. It really could just be config files like xinetd or logrotate except for a few hard cases where you could have a "run this script" attribute. -- -Barry Shein The World | bzs () TheWorld com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: 800-THE-WRLD | Dial-Up: US, PR, Canada Software Tool & Die | Public Access Internet | SINCE 1989 *oo*
