I did that and I made a script and rebooted but my script did not run as the program wasn't listed in my ps -acux output. But if I did cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d and then issued ./myscript.sh it works fine. This is my script: 103 Blacksheep# cat dynip.sh #!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/dynipclient -f /etc/dynip.cfg Where would I find the output of what happened when this was run during boot?
