hello, i need to know how to start programs on startup. i have a keylogger that i want to
run when i start my computer but i dont know how to do it. to start the programs you have to type

Code:

./lkl -l -k keymaps/us_km -o logs/log.log

so i made a shell script to do that but now i need that to start on startup. how do i do that?

Add it to /etc/rc.d/rc.local

Why the heck are you running a keylogger anyway?

Why would you compromise the security of your system doing this? And it had better be your system and not someone else's... there is no quicker way to become a lamer.

Well, on top of a keylogger... do you have a secure password and strong permission mask? Meaning, they could not read your files unless logged in as you... and they can't log in as you.

If they insist on being able to log in as you... create a second, real account, and a fake account under your name. Use the fake account for pretty much nothing and make sure it can't read the files of the other account.
