rc scripts are a thing of the past in OpenSolaris. You should check out the smf(5) faq <http://opensolaris.org/os/community/smf/faq/> and the Service Management Facility community <http://opensolaris.org/os/community/smf/>. This community should be able to help get you started. --jc --- Jeff Cheeney OpenSolaris Storage Community Lead http://opensolaris.org/os/community/storage http://blogs.sun.com/icedawn
