Automatically Starting ypserv on boot


Hi there --

I want to set up a symbolic link in one of the rc.d directories that will point to the /etc/init.d/ypserv script. The goal here is to have ypserv start automatically on system boot. My question is, into which of the rc.d directories should the symbolic link go? Thanks.

The chkconfig can do the hard work for you:

Code:
su -
chkconfig -add ypserv
(if not done already)
chkconfig ypserv on
Of course, you can also use the graphical 'system-config-services' tool.
