How can I execute a script at boot time ?
it's a simple retrieving email script with 'getmail'
I put a line in /etc/rc.d/rc.local calling the script
but it does not execute it ( if I lunch it from bash it does )
There are no messages in /var/log/messagges
I tried with chkconfig 

/usr/sbin/chkconfig.exe --add /bin/startup_retrieve_mail.sh --level 35
/usr/sbin/chkconfig.exe --add startup_retrieve_mail.sh --level 35
/usr/sbin/chkconfig --level 35 startup_retrieve_mail.sh on

but everytime it says 

" error reading information on service /bin/startup_retrieve_mail.sh: No
  such file or directory "

I read man init and inittab, cygwin faq, cygwin manual, searched in
google, in mailing lists.
