Wow. Very good idea :-/

Do you still think chmod 777 is a good idea? (Hint: 755 is ways better!)

Oh, please do *not* test what the generated script would do!

Are you really sure that this is part of your command line?

Have a look at /etc/init.d/skeleton to see how initscripts should be 
written. 

Your short script may work (at least as long as you don't use insserv - 
it will move your script to start first. This will make it fail because 
the network script won't be run yet.) - but it is a very bad style.
