adding programs to startup
 

hi,

i need help on how i am going to add my programs to startup without the need of logging in, i've tried putting it in my rc.local but it didn't start either. please help, BTW i'm using FC3 distro. thanks in advance and have a nice day.

Try to put it in /etc/rc5.d

But surely it _must_ run rc.local?! Check that rc.local has execute bit set (chmod a+x rc.local). It's might also be a good idea to use full paths of binaries in rc.local, maybe the path is not yet set when it runs?
