[SOLVED] Automatic startup of Ventrilo Server Fedora 12

telx85 · 02-01-2011, 02:22 AM

G'day

I'm looking for a way to automatically startup Ventrilo when my linuxbox restarts. At the moment I have to manually start it up. I know there is a way and I've tried to follow other threads but I can't seem to find a tutorial on how to do this with the Fedora 12 distro.

Any help or redirection will be gladly appreciated

Thankyou
Steve

Hi,

Try :

Code:

chkconfig --add ventrilo

telx85 · 02-01-2011, 10:58 PM

unfortunately doesn't work
comes with error:
error reading information on service ventrilo_srv: No such file or directory

also tried just ventrilo

the way to run the program manually is to ./etc/ventsrv/ventrilo_srv

any other thoughts
