All the steps that you used to create the bridge by hand is what will be stored in this script. The your script will need to be called in runlevel 3 and runlevel 5. This is how Linux systems startup. You may want to search on System V ( as in five ) startup files. Each distro puts their startup file in a different directory. On Redhat systems it is in /etc/rc.d but I am not sure if this is the same for Slackware. I hope this helps, Greg
