No, it's a simple bourne script. If you put "bourne shell scripting" into Google, you will get tutorials and information. You could write an rc.d script in perl if you wanted to. The scripts in /usr/ local/etc/rc.d need to match the following rules in order to be executed at system startup/shutdown: (taken from the rc man page) 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. o The scripts within each directory are executed in lexicographical order. If a specific order is required, numbers may be used as a prefix to the existing filenames, so for example 100.foo would be executed before 200.bar; without the numeric prefixes the opposite would be true. >-Original Message- From: Edward Epstein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, November 10, 2003 5:43 PM >To: Chirhart, Brian; [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: Mount SMB share on bootup > > >Lines prefixed with ">" are what Chirhart, Brian wrote. > >>>> point is password protected (on the XP side) so I am prompted for a >>>> password.
