load script at bootup

[Chris Morris]

Take a look at SmokePing.   We use it here to keep track of a mediocre 
internet connection.  It graphs over time what your ping and latency was 
for any given target.

I'll let others address the starting at boot time, as I won't be able to 
describe it good.  I will say that you should probably be looking at 
your /etc/rc.conf file.  Make your script accessbile via a 
myscript_enable="YES" call, and you're well on your way.
