Thanks. > John john, check out the variouse /etc/rc* files. these are the scripts that are run upon changing to a new init level. the various /etc/rc *directories* hold individual scripts which are also run. i believe that the code that you are looking for should be in there. sorry i can't be more precise, but i don't have a uport system anymore. (gotta at&t unix-pc a few weeks ago, and sold my pc). but the scripts are fairly strait forward and simple to pick apart. (also pretty educational, if you realy want to find out what all goes on at bootup) good luck! ===================================================================== Bill Rankin Bell Labs, Whippany NJ (201) 386-4154 (cornet 232) email address: ...!att!moss!wtr
