If you upload a new version of nas, could you fix its /etc/init.d/nas
file? Right now it looks like this:
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/nas: start or stop the Network Audio System.
. /etc/init.d/functions
test -x /usr/bin/X11/auvoxware
[etc]
1. The '.' line is obsolete.
2. The test line should read
test -f /usr/bin/X11/auvoxware || exit 0
or something like that...

PS Hmm... Would it be better to test for -f or for -x in the init.d
files??
