Two Things

1) I didn't like the old one... no stop or restart, and it ran things as root... bad idea in my opinion for multiple reasons.

2) I specifically didn't want to do things this way so that the console messages were clear.

Two Things

1) Ah, yes, but if you dig through the comments, you'll find a script that is essentially the same as yours. Two major differences being that it allows for a setting in /etc/hostconfig to enable/disable the service and it uses su instead of sudo. I'd vote slightly more functional, but negligible in the long run. Still, two hints on the site now refer to starting FMS at boot. Redundancy continues.

2) Fair enough.
