i dont want to go with the rename option, as if tomorrow i want to add
more scripts to run at startup i will be in a mess.
I will tell in detail so that it would be easy for you to understand my
problem :-
Intention is that the script file should be called at both startup and
shutdown.
In Linux after doing :-
1. Copying the script to /etc/rc.d directory.
2. /sbin/chkconfig --add "scriptname"
While startup scriptfile is called with parameter start and while shutdown
it is called with parameter stop.
So i check the parameter value in the script and if it is start , i run my
executables and if it is stop i gracefully exit from my executables.
I want to achie same thing in FreeBSD.
Thanks,

All scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d are sent the "start" parameter at bootup
and the "stop" parameter at shutdown. So this is exactly what you are
looking for. If your script isn't running correctly check the paths to the
executables, and also put some echo statements in the script to follow the
logic to debug it.
