Just edit the one from anacron. If you just need to run that command when
you first boot up, it does make more sense to put it in rc.local. If
you're not actually starting up a program, the 'stop' and 'status'
commands don't usually make much sense. Here's a modified init.d script
from anacron:
#!/bin/sh
# Startup script for lsmodemd
#
# chkconfig: 2345 95 05
# description: lsmodemd does something
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
[ -f /usr/bin/lsmodemd ] || exit 0
prog="lsmodemd"
start() {
echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
if /usr/bin/lsmodemd --country=SA /dev/lsusb ; then
touch /var/lock/subsys/$prog
echo_success ; echo
else
echo_failure ; echo
fi
}
stop() {
echo -n $"Stopping $prog: "
stopcmd="command to stop lsmodemd"
if $stopcmd ; then
rm -f /var/lock/subsys/$prog
echo_success ; echo
else
echo_failure ; echo
fi
}
case "$1" in
start)
start
;;
stop)
stop
;;
status)
if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/$prog ]; then
echo "$prog is started."
else
echo "$prog is stopped."
fi
;;
restart)
stop
start
;;
condrestart)
# whatever a condrestart would be for lsmodemd
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
# end of script
