What OS and distro are you using? Some kind of Unix? Some kind of Linux? If
Linux, which distro? If you're running Gentoo (unlikely), then try installing
Freenet from 'emerge freenet' and run 'rc-update add freenet default'.
Really, without knowing your OS, there's not much help to be had. If you're
feeling adventurous, you can check out my script below. The start() function
is probably what you'll want to look at. Notice the CLASSPATH variable. You
need to have freenet.jar and freenet-ext.jar in there.
#!/sbin/runscript
# Gentoo freenet init.d-script
#
# This script requires the companion script start-freenet.sh to do it's
# job. This script is needed to facilitate full logging of freenet.
#
# Also requires the /etc/conf.d/freenet file to be configured correctly.
