<HTML dir=ltr><HEAD></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV id=idOWAReplyText55384 dir=ltr> <DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>One thing I've noticed on my SuSE linux boxes since 9.x is that the init files tend to work strangely - like they don't have enough privileges or something.  If you make a NEW init file, even if you load it up with 'su' commands, set paths and all that, they just don't seem to run properly.  So, FWIW, be warned that even when you DO get your symlinks working, your new RC file might act weird.  Of course I've been too lazy to actually determine what the problem is, so I'd love to hear if anyone knows.</FONT></DIV> <DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV></DIV> <DIV id=idSignature42515> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman">Mark Lachniet<BR></FONT></FONT><BR> <HR tabIndex=-1> <FONT face=Tahoma size=2><B>From:</B> Alec Warner<BR><B>Sent:</B> Fri 6/30/2006 9:22 AM<BR><B>To:</B> Caleb Cushing<BR><B>Cc:</B> Linux User<BR><B>Subject:</B> Re: [GLLUG] adding init scripts to runlevels suse 9.3<BR></FONT><BR></DIV></DIV> <DIV><PRE style="WORD-WRAP: break-word">Caleb Cushing wrote: > I've been trying to figure out how to make some init scripts run on run > level 3 by default. in gentoo it would be > > # rc-update add <scriptname> default > > but I have no Idea how to do it in suse. the online docs I found weren't > exactly helpful. appreciate the help. rc-update is merely a script that makes symlinks. Typically you have a directory called /etc/rc.d/ which contains a set of runlevels [0-6] and sometimes s. So take a sneaky peaky in there if you have one; you are either symlinking or adding things to a file usually (SYS V or BSD). _______________________________________________ linux-user mailing list linux-user@egr.msu.edu http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user </PRE></DIV></BODY></HTML>
