Hi everyone

I you can solve this one I will give you a big wet kiss on the bum.

I have a service (connectd) which I want to start at bootup (init 5).  So I 
have the script in init.d, and linked to rc5.d (and others).  Now, if I let 
my system boot-up automatically, the service will not start (even though 
drakconf -> services says it is running, it is not).  If I use the 
Interactive startup at boottime, it WILL startup.  If I use
service connectd start
from the console, it will start.  Ie. the only time it will NOT start is in 
a full-speed automatic bootup.  I have included the boot script below.
work hard now to earn your kiss.
