Hi,

I'm risking a stupid question again, but i'll do it anyway:

To automatically start a proces I have 2 options:

1.) Make a start script, put it in /etc/rc.d and make a Sxx and Kxx link to
it in the /etc/rc.d/rcx.d directory of each runlevel in which I want the
process to be started.

2.) Include a line in /etc/inittab; like

q:2345:once:/usr/local/squid/bin/squid

I think the second option is much easier to do, so why is every Unix/Linux
using moslty the first option? What am I missing?

Thanks, Sander
