Boot script

p0k3r · 11-04-2006, 12:01 PM

okay, so im running slackware 10 and im using Wlan for internett where I have to have a static Ip

so every time I boot I have to type these 2 commands:

ifconfig rausb0 192.168.0.100 up
route add default gw 192.168.0.1 rausb0

I don't reboot often but never the less I realy dont want to do this every time. Im new to linux but not to google so I tryed that and all I got was how

Quote:

Slackware Linux is not like other Linux distributions that separate the startup scripts across individual directories. It instead follows a more BSD-like startup method.

and things similar to this.

could any one at least point me in the right direction on where I can insert these commands so that they are executed every time I boot

thanks for any help

# vi /etc/rc.d/rc.local

Place your commands in there:

--- rc.local ---
#!/bin/sh
#
# /etc/rc.d/rc.local: Local system initialization script.
#
# Put any local startup commands in here. Also, if you have
# anything that needs to be run at shutdown time you can
# make an /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown script and put those
# commands in there.

ifconfig rausb0 192.168.0.100 up
route add default gw 192.168.0.1 rausb0
--- rc.local ---

Why don't you just add that to /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf where it belongs?

Code:

# Config information for eth0:
IFNAME[0]="rausb0"
IPADDR[0]="192.168.0.100"
NETMASK[0]="255.255.255.0"
USE_DHCP[0]=""

GATEWAY="192.168.0.1"
