Q re missing rc.local file

[Gene Heskett <gene.heskett@verizon.net>]

Greetings;

I just ran into a bit of a problem caused by the diffs between a RH 
install and a debian-3.1 install.

I have a fairly lengthy list of things I've added to 
the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file, which is softlinked from S99local in the 
various rcX.d directories in RH & Fedora and is the last thing 
executed before the login screen in a RG/Fedora runlevel 3 boot.

Stuff like a 4 line stanza that sets up and runs my setiathome admin 
script before I'm even logged in as any user, so it runs regardless 
of the login state of anyone.

So where do I put the 'local' stuff in a debian install?

I could use a short tutorial on the debian setup in re the various 
rcX.d directories if someone has the time, or a pointer to a manpage 
if there is one.

Cheers, Gene
