Hey where is the rc.local script in Debian?

I'm using Libranet which is based on Debian and I read somewhere that Debian does not have a rc.local script. My question is, is there an equivalent script for Debian? I'm asking this because I want to know what is commands are started during boot in my settings...

Hi,

Debian begins with /etc/rcS.d/ scripts and then run /etc/rc5.d/ scripts (if you boot into runlevel 5 of course). If you want to add your own script, edit it in /etc/init.d (don't forget to set exec rights) and then do a symlink like that:

Code:

ln -s my_script /etc/rc5.d/S90my_script

Note that when your system reboots, it uses /etc/rc6.D/ scripts and if it halts that's /etc/rc0.d/ one's
