init.d

["R K" <microkernel@hotmail.com>]

I've been having some problems getting startup scripts to work.  
Particularly with MySQL (latest binary release).  From what I know, you're 
supposed to put the script in /etc/init.d and make a sym-link to /etc/rcX.d 
right?  In any case, I put the script in init.d and made a symlink 
(S99mysql.server -> ../init.d/mysql.server) in rc3.d, but nothing happens at 
startup.  I remeber having this problem before and fixing it, but now I 
can't remember what I did.  Running potato (not like it makes a difference, 
I was running slink the other time).  Anyway, if I've missed some critical 
step, please let me know. =)

Oh yeah.. the script and the symlink DO work directly from the command line. 
i.e. "/etc/init.d/mysql.server start" works.  I've even tried echo testing 
the script, and have determined that it's not even being run at startup.

Thanks
RK
