You didn't give much information there.  Not feeling terribly psychic
today, I'll just tell you what the manual says.

     o   Scripts are only executed if their basename(1) matches the shell
         globbing pattern *.sh, and they are executable.  Any other files or
         directories present within the directory are silently ignored.
     o   When a script is executed at boot time, it is passed the string
         ``start'' as its first and only argument.  At shutdown time, it is
         passed the string ``stop'' as its first and only argument.  All rc.d
         scripts are expected to handle these arguments appropriately.  If no
         action needs to be taken at a given time (either boot time or shut-
         down time) the script should exit successfully and without producing
         an error message.
