rc.local won't start

[volomir]

hi gurus

i have a problem, rc.local in /etc/rc.d/ won't start at boot
i don't have many things put in that file, it just loads me ip_gre module, starts the ftp and squid server, and some echos ( ex : " echo Welcome have a nive day " )
it has the right rights ( chmod +x ), when i give ls la it shows me that root owns it, all of that looks ok

when i give sh /etc/rc.d/rc.local, it executes the file, but not at boot time
what can be the problem ? i checked the logs, everything looks fine, i checked rc.M in /etc/rc.d/ and it looks fine too .

what can be the problem ?!
thanks in advance .
