    You remember correctly. You pointed some things out for me. Thanks
    again for that.

    The S08smbfs does get created again. Since it fails, the S21my_smbfs
    tries again and succeeds. I suppose I could "uncheck" smbfs in the
    runlevel editor and then only the S21... would be there.

    What I should do is find out what I have that needs to load before smbfs
    and fix the script so it gets loaded in the proper sequence, but then
    again, there are many things I *should* do. It's working. I'll worry
    about it another time.
