hi Friends,
I have written one C program which is used to play mediafile in Xine media player.I can run this program normaly.
But I want this program to be run automatically as soon as my machine finishes booting.I am using Fedora core 4 .
Please guide me, how to do this,what settings in rc scripts i need to do?

Thank You,
Nitin

You can run the program by putting a commandline to run it in /etc/rc.local From there, it will run as root, after the system is otherwise finished booting.
