RunService should be used. It's defined in /etc/rc.common, which is
included at the top of the script.
Does your system have /etc/rc.common, and does it define RunService?
...and are you trying to run the script directly from the command
line, or did you install it as a startup item and then either manually
change the permissions of the BPF devices or do "sudo SystemStarter
start ChmodBPF"? (You have to do the latter because merely installing
a startup item doesn't provoke it to be run; when you next reboot,
it'll be run automatically at startup time.)
ChmodBPF is *NOT* intended to be run from the command line; it's
intended to be run as a startup item, as per the document Gerald cited.
