Run Level Services file

Hello,
I recently updated a test system from Suse 8 to 9.3. Now our runlevel services program doesn't work, but works fine on our other 9.3 boxes.

We have a file in /etc/init.d/rc3.d called S99fooprog(not actual name ofcourse).
It just has a command to start a program daemon up. Anyways after bootup it shows Failed Services in runlevel 3: fooprog
in the boot.msg it says fooprog: No such file or directory.

This file isn't a link like all of the other files I see in the rc directories, but as I noted earlier on our other 9.3 boxes this process works fine and I guess is setup the same way. Can someone tell me where it would be looking for fooprog to say it's not found?

Thanks for any help.

Is /etc/init.d/rc3.d/S99fooprog a symbolic link to /etc/init.d/fooprog?

If so, does /etc/init.d/fooprog exist?

Cheers,
ZB

No, S99fooprog isn't a symbolic link...

/etc/init.d/rc3.d
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 42 Mar 28 2005 S99fooprog

Thanks.
