Author HPUX 11.11 doesn't call stop /sbin/rc3.d???

I have a stop/start script that lives in /sbin/rc3.d. The start gets
called but I don't see the stop ever called.

case "$1" in
....
'stop')
echo "Im SHUTTING DOWN1" > /tmp/out.txt 1>&2
/usr/bin/nohup <Do something> >/dev/null 2>&1 &
/usr/bin/sleep 20 #give some time to shutdown
echo "Im SHUTTING DOWN2" > /tmp/out.txt 1>&2
;;
....

I never get anything to /tmp/out.txt. Is there something special that
needs to happen to allow for the stop other than just adding a 'stop'
parameter?

in /sbin/rc3.d all scripts are named S* so are called with "start"

Put a symbolic link /sbin/rc0.d/K...
that points to your start script.
Then it is called with "stop" when run-level 0 is entered.
