Hey no problem,

Just copy the second lot into /etc/init.d/boot.local that will make it

start on boot.

It is a bit like the autoexec.bat in windows

Just to be my nit-picking self, again: it's more like CONFIG.SYS. The

closest corollary to AUTOEXEC.BAT in Linux is the shell config files,'.bashrc' and/or '.profile' if you're using BASH . . . ;-)

BTW, Mark, have a nice weekend -- we will be under 37 degrees C, hereso should be a more comfortable weekend . . .
