Running a particular program during boot

undemane · 03-23-2005, 06:02 AM

I need to run a client to log on to my internet server. Now I login as root and run

./crclient -u <username>

How do I run this automatically when the system is booting?

You could put your command in /etc/rc.d/rc.local

have tried that, but it does not seem to work

of course...

./crclient -u <username>

won't work because you're using a relative path (./ = this directory). you must put the ABSOLUTE path in the /etc/rc.d/rc.local got it?

Hope this help...
