Hello, and a good day to you all.  I have been setting up the
Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO from the Linux Docs Project on a
Slackware 8.1 box.  http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO.html

The instructions are based on using Red Hat & Suse.

I am stumped when the instructions reference having services
automatically start at boot time.

example:

You may wish to start MySQL automatically at boottime, copy
/usr/local/mysql/share/mysql/mysql.server to /etc/init.d/ for SuSE, for Redhat it is /etc/rc.d/init.d instead of /etc/init.d/. Further you need to add symbolic links to /etc/init.d/rc3.d for SuSE and /etc/rc.d/rc3.d for Redhat.

SuSe - /etc.init.d
redhat - /etc/rc.d/init.d
slackware - /etc/rc.d ?????
---
Suse - /etc/init.d/rc3.d/
redhat - /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/
slackware - /etc/rc.d ?????

also would the symbolic links also be put in /etc/rc.d ????

Anyone familiar with Slackware, I appreciate the help.

Many Thanks,
