What about simply putting a number in front of the script, I didn't check but am really certain that we start scripts something like this: cd $LOCALBASE/etc/rc.d for i in *.sh <--- here you get an alphabetically sort order ! do if [ -x $i ]; then /bin/sh $i start fi done So this would be sufficient to start slapd before slurpd: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/001.slapd.sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/002.slurpd.sh or alternatively /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openldap-01-slapd.sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/openldap-02-slurpd.sh We already have things like: 000.mysql-client.sh 000.pkgtools.sh 000.wine.sh 010.pgsql.sh Andreas /// -- Andreas Klemm - Powered by FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT Need a magic printfilter today ? -> http://www.apsfilter.org/Received on Sat Nov 29 2003 - 23:50:17 UTC
