Re: automatic service start at startup

[ali shahrokni <shahrokni@gmail.com>]

Thanks guys,
using your help, I could solve the problem the neat way: I just had to 
set a higher number (99, instead of 19) to the symlink to autofs, in 
rc2.d... I don't know exactly why it had to be higher, but now it works 
fine! thanks!
