Packaging your commands as an SMF service is the recommended solution. Typically, you'd define this as a transient service, which executes the scripted commands you supply and then exits. Many of the services you see defined in OpenSolaris are defined exactly this way. Oh, and yes, the service will remain enabled for the next system restart unless you specifically disable it, either manually or as part of the script. Dave
