I should think the normal case for a webcam (I'm thinking USB webcams, now) would be for the cam to not necessarily be present at boot time. Instead, when the cam module is loaded/unloaded by the kernel it should invoke via kernel module (un-)loading hooks the necessary scripts for starting/stopping the streaming server. Are you sure you really want this as an init script? Ben -- synrg at debian dot org
