Usually, you write a init compatible script and place it in /etc/init.d/, then link that script to the run levels you want it started and stopped. See /etc/init.d/skeleton and `man 8 update-rc.d` on how to create the links. You may also could also consider using devfsd instead, it has facilities to set permissions when modules are loaded. /Allan -- Allan Wind P.O. Box 2022 Woburn, MA 01888-0022 USA
