The problem I'm having is some things (iptables_pre & iptables.rh73) he has me copy into /etc/init.d and then symlink from /etc/rcX.d, and other things he has me copy into /etc/rc.d (rc.fwsoho, which is called from iptables.rh73) and I'm trying to figure out the implications of that. What else typically lives in /etc/rc.d? What sort of files are kept there in Red Hat?
