ifconfig ath0 down

just compare it to an existing script in /etc/init.d

if you put a "case" in for start stop restart, when you type /etc/init.d/script start/stop/restart it will perform the action defined in that section of the script.

All you need to do is use a case statement. Do a man case then check it out.




case $1 in # $1 is the first parameter passed to the script.
start)
command1
command2
;; #exit the switch, like break.
stop)
command1
command2
;;
restart)
$0 stop #$0 is the path to the script itself.
$0 start
*) #The default case, if nothing else matches.
echo "Usage $0 ( start | stop | restart)"
# You don't need ;; here.
esac #close the case
