Re: rc.local equivalent
as far as i know there isn't one. make your own script in /etc/init.d
and link to it in the runlevels that you want /etc/rc2.d is the default
runlevels init scripts.
personally, i like this method better, as you can just remove symlinks to
stop them from starting up, but don't have to delete the init script
itself.
