Hello Marcel, Even though Mac OS X supports the /etc/rc startup, you would normally use the System Starter for other programs. Try to look at /System/Library/StartupItems for some examples. The System Starter would actually look at two directories, the one I mentioned previously and /Library/StartupItems.
Each services in that directory should have at least two files: 1. The shell script (similar to rc scripts) that has the same name as the directory where it resides. For example, /System/Library/StartupItems/Radiator has the file /System/Library/StartupItems/Radiator/Radiator (which is the rc'ish script) 2. StartupParameters.plist which is a file (I believe an XML file) with the properties (including when to start up the script) in the same directory as the rc'ish script. I'll send the scripts and instructions to Hugh for inclusion to the goodies section. Much thanks. Regards, Neil D.
