all: thanks for your input. i was given a script which i'm enclosing after i've made changes to it according to my environment. this was provided by david foster. i'll implement and test it later on tonight. so hopefully, the scottish chap who also has tomcat installed can use this instead of manually starting it up. i've placed it in /etc/init.d/tomcat and made it executable. i'll create a symbolic link in the /etc/rc3.d/ dir cd /etc/rc3.d ln -s S98autotomcat /etc/init.d/tomcat though david instructed me to do this i the /etc/rc2.d dir but i think it shouldn't make a difference. i'm also sending it as a text attachement david's orginal script. satish #!/bin/sh # Make sure that /export/home/webmstr/ is mounted [ ! -d /export/home/webmstr/jakarta-tomcat-3.3 ] && exit 1 case "$1" in 'start') if [ -x /export/home/webmstr/jakarta-tomcat-3.3/bin/startup.sh ]; then echo "Starting tomcat server ..."
