Yes, the init scripts support the notion of a service depending on another service, and some things are "before" or "after" other things. Check the man pages for baselayout and openrc. There are differences between baselayout-1 and baselayout-2, but you don't say which you use. There was a discussion here about this very thing in the last week. Check the mail archives. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
