Because it's obsolete? The Right Thing To Do (TM) with modern versions of Debian is to put your startup script in /etc/init.d, and create symlinks as appropriate using ln(1) or update-rc.d(8). If you want it to run at boot time, put the symlink in /etc/rcS.d. Note that if you *do* decide to use rc.boot, it runs after everything in /etc/rcS.d. This may or may not be what you want. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting. Politicking should be illegal." -- Abra Mitchell
