Assuming you're running svscan on /service (not /supervise) already,
e.g. from inittab, you could change the "start" section in the script
to:

I was on the right lines, I just didnt know any thing about svc.
once the links are created to /service it will start automatically on boot
up,
but if it had been stopped before shutdown (svc -d) - it will need to be
'svc -u' ed on bootup? so qmail(in init.d) should still be linked
