Hi Erich,

One that looks pretty basic to me is /etc/init.d/ntpdate...
This is used to run the ntpdate program once at system start.
You can find it in the ntpdate.lrp package
"tar tzf ntpdate.lrp etc/init.d/ntpdate" will show you the path to this file.

You will need some basic shell scripting knowledge to understand this.
