Do you mean that you want some script available for any user to run at their discretion? Or that you want the system to run before any users get on so something is done for them? In the first case, probably /usr/local/bin is the most common place. In the second, /usr/local/etc/rc.d is the place to put them to have them run at boot to multi-user time. If those script in /usr/local/bin can do any thing serious, like write to people's files then you might want to make a little shell written in c to run them so the users do no run them directly, but only the binary. Then stash the actual scripts somewhere else. ////jerry > > Thanks > > Andy > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
