No, but I'm very new to scripting.

A little help please. How would I set this up in /etc/rc.d/rc.local? That is 
using the script that I previously posted.

The script wants to be started from /etc/rc.d/rc.local, but doesn't want to 
delay the bootup, which will nullify running the script.

The script path is: /usr/local/bin/ntp-restart

Nigel.
