help with startup items?

help with startup items?

[Tyler Littlefield]

Hay,
How would I get a program to start as soon as my system does?
I just compiled and got a server going, and finally the mud, and want to get things starting up when the comp does.
Thanks,

Tyler. It depends on which distro you are using.

Here are some tips though. Put a start up script in /etc/init.d if you 
have such a beast. This is how it's done on systems like Debian and 
Fedora Core. If you have slackware then if memory serves the script you 
add things to is /etc/rc.d/rc.local

HTH.

One more thing to add here is that in debian, once you've put your
script into /etc/init.d, you then need to run update-rc.d to link it
into the startup/shutdown script directories.

nn signifies the time when the service runs.  Lower numbers run earlier
than higher numbers.  Most startup services use the number 20.  THis is
the default.  Only change it if you have a specific reason why it should
run before or after something else.

HTH,
Lorenzo
