That was at that moment not the problem. I used:
    ${HOME}/bin/leafnodeFetch.sh

But when boot.local is run HOME is not defined.

So I changed it to:
    /root/bin/leafnodeFetch.sh

But then the network was not up. So I changed it to:
    echo /root/bin/leafnodeFetch.sh | at now +1 minutes

I have a working solution, but in principal is this better of-course.
How should I implement this?
