Thanks, that worked.

No sure about Ubuntu/debian, but on Slackware it's just a matter of
"does anything in /etc/rc.d/* start it?"

rc.inet1 sets up ifs, and rc.inet2 starts services (if [ -x
/etc/rc.d/rc.httpd ]; /etc/rc.d/rc.httpd start ...). If I want to
enable httped, I just chmod +x the rc file.
