I just 'borrowed' another script and tailored it to work the way I 
needed.  As to the display of messages at boot time, I don't recall 
checking if they come out without the echo statements.  I've been using 
this script for several years.

1. cd? hobbit.sh lives in $HOME/server
2. rc_status? I don't know.
3. hobbit.sh restart? Because at boot time I want Xymon to start 
(./hobbit.sh start) and at shutdown I want xymon to stop (./xymon.sh stop).
