hi all...

i used to be able to put startup scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/.
now on a new 7 install i have the scripts there but after restart 
nothing happens.... 

using the example here: 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/configtuning-starting-services.html

any particular reason?

thanks..
