But you did. And I can't think of any way to recover that. Second, why didn't you just use a native text editor in linux instead of M$ Notepad? For one thing, using a native linux text editor, like vim, doesn't screw up the file's permissions. Oh well. To each his own. Check if your rc.local is executable. If not, as root, type: #chmod 755 /etc/rc/d/rc.local You might want to read 'chmod's man pages. #man chmod HTH -------------- Yardan Ambrose Certified Penguin Enthusiast [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- _______________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup 1 cent a minute calls anywhere in the U.S.! http://www.getpennytalk.com/cgi-bin/adforward.cgi?p_key=RG9853KJ&url=http://www.getpennytalk.com _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
