How to run a script that will automatically start FTP service after installation?
 

Hi,

I am trying to do a automatic installation of linux using preseed in ubuntu. I need to run a script that will configure and start FTP service in the system soon after installation. I need the script to run only after installation and not for every boot/login. Could anyone please suggest a method to do this?

Thank You in Advance.

hi,

but why you need a script to do a work like this which can be done in minutes

thanks

for Preeseed it looks like you can add other packages..
Preseeding other packages
Run scripts, and load config files

Their docs could be a bit more informative....


the Example preseed config script also shos how to add additional packages.


Preseed Looks like a stripped down version of FAI. If you can't figure out how to get preseed to handle your custom package selection take a look at FAI for Debian, it should be able to do what you want...
