NAME

inet.local − File to invoke local network commands

DESCRIPTION

The inet.local file is a file that is called by /sbin/init.d/inet after all the network interfaces are up and running, but before any other network services are started.  The file can contain those commands that pertain to the local system.  For example, you could set the system time from the local network at boot time by editing the file and adding a line containing the rdate -s command.  If you needed to add aliases for existing IP addresses, you could add the ifconfig command and arguments to this file. 

The inet.local file is a Context-Dependent Symbolic Link (CDSL) and must be maintained as such.  See the System Administration manual for more information.
