Yes. That was it. Thanks.
However, I had thought that the behavior to be different. My man page
(from 6.0-RC?) reads:
The following key points apply to old-style scripts in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/:
· Scripts are only executed if their basename(1) matches the shell
globbing pattern *.sh, and they are executable. Any other files or
directories present within the directory are silently ignored.
Has the behavior changed? It was my understanding that files with *.sh
or no extension (yet executable), would be run.
Thanks again.
