You usually create a file in somewhere like /etc/init.d, then link it to files in /etc/rc0.d & /etc/rc3.d, assuming that run levels 0 & 3 are shutdown and multi-user respectively. /etc maybe /sbin. Just make sure that your environment is set correctly in this script. Cheers, -- Mark. +----------------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | Mark D.
