I'm curious how this works for you but not for Mr. Belahcene and not for me. I've a Debian 4.0 (Etch mostly) system with sysv-rc installed and /etc/rc.local is not called by default. I added a call in /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh to get it executed because the suggestion in the Debian FAQ sect. 10.6 which says to put a script in /etc/init.d/ then use update-rc.d to set the links seemed over complex for my needs. Do you have the file-rc package installed instead of sysv-rc? Thanks, Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
