Well, I'm using Debian, and I believe that other distributions are
similar, but Your Mileage May Vary, as they say. I have a directory
called /etc/init.d that contains all the startup and shutdown scripts
for everything that's run at bootup and poweroff. There's also a series
of directories called /etc/rc?.d (where ? is the runlevel), and in these
are symlinks to the stuff in /etc/init.d that is called at that
particular runlevel. I believe all you'd have to do would be to put
your script in /etc/init.d (making sure you've chmod +x'd it--God knows,
I've forgotten that myself) and put a symlink in your favorite runlevel.

You may also want to check out http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/
in Chapter 3.3, System Runlevels, or search Google for "runlevels" or
"SysV" or "init."

Yours,
Carson

If it's debian. you can run the special script update-rc.d and it
will add all appropriatte symlinks. man update-rc.d on a debian box
for details.

I don't know if other distros have rc.local file, but RedHats do.

Simplest way I know would be adding it to end of "rc.local" file.
or you make this "start" sequence you wrote, as text file and call it from
you rc.local file.
