Thanks! It didn't get me there yet, but it gave me an indication on where the real problem seems to be. On startup I got this message:
/opt/jabber-1.4.1/jabberd/jabberd: error while loading shared libraries: libpth.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory So the problem wasn't in the scripts, something else is wrong... Strange though, I can manually start jabberd without any problems.

Just add these two lines to the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local: echo "Starting Jabber..." /path/to/jabberd & The above is quite optimistic - it doesn't check to see whether the server crashed - 'cos if it did jabber won't start until you delete the jabber.pid file. So I wouldn't do it this way on a production server, but it is a quick fix.
