Rather than write a generator for a static configuration file that is consumed by a script, would it make more sense to modify the /etc/init.d script to compute whatever you need on the fly? I would think that would make deployment more flexible and (depending on what you're trying to do) perhaps eliminate the need for a manual configuration step. I did that once for a Gentoo VM that needed to figure out a working network configuration under a variety of hypervisors (the thing being distributed to customers was the VM, and final setup was web-based, so it had to work no matter what). -Tim
