Start-up scripts

is there a location or a file which i can ammend to add some system wide startup scripts for boot, like a bandwidth shaper or a firewall? I hate having to load them manually.

Not a KDE specific questions, but I'll give it a try :)

Startup scripts are usually in /etc/init.d (might be slightly different depending on your distribution) which are then linked into the runlevel directories to have them executed at the correct point during boot.

You could ask in the Distrobution section of this board in the forum of the distribution you are using.

Yes, the link has some special name though.
Most distributions have some tool which creates such links
