This solution works. 2 questions: 1. The name/number of the links does only determine the order of the init scripts, or one script can only be run when the previous script has started already?
The Name of the link USED TO determine the start sequence. I think there is newer methods in play these days. The fact that simply renameing the links did not work suggests something else is afoot, OR that this had to be done EARLIER, such as in rc3.d instead of rc5.d. Supposedly a script can not start until the successful completion of any script it Requires
2. How does one know that VMware is what has to be put in the "# Required-Start" line and not vmware, as the init script name would suggest?
By looking inside the vmware script at the #Provides: line. Believe me, I went round and round looking for why it didn't work and when I found that Vmware was using inconsistent capitalization I sent them a nastygram. "Provides" need not be related in any way to script name, but usually is.
Now it seems that the problem is solved. Thank you.
