Yes. There needs to be a symlink to the appropriate run level directory of /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S90spamassassin or similar. On RH systems that is usually placed by the 'chkconfig' command. But your script is missing the chkconfig lines to make that work. Something like the following lines in the top of the script will tell chkconfig to symlink that script to run levels 2 3 4 5 with order numbers of S90 and K10. # chkconfig: 2345 90 10 # description: SpamAssassin Then read the chkconfig man page because I forget the exact commands. But I think you need to run 'chkconfig --add spamassassin' at that time. Bob
