Start-up script not starting up process.

Hello Managers,
        I have an interesting problem, I have a startup script called ups in
/sbin/init.d and is linked to S99ups in /sbin/rc3.d,(as well as
/sbin/rc0.d/K01ups).
        The problem is this, when I run:

                 # /sbin/rc3.d/S99ups start

The process starts up with out any problems. When I reboot, it doesn't, no
error messages or anything, the process doesn't start up, it just isn't
there.

        I changed the first line of the startup script to read:

                #!/bin/sh -x
                            ^^
So I could see what was happening and what's going wrong. The script seems
to run equally well either from the command line or during the reboot. I see
the same output, it tells me it is up and running. But after the reboot it's
simply not there.

        Anybody had a similar problem? As always, I'll summarize.

UNIX is very user friendly, It's just very particular about who it makes
friends with.
