unable to link file


I am trying to link a DansGuardian file from /etc/rc.d/init.d/dansguardian to /etc/rc.d/rc5.d and when I do I get an error that states 'could not create symlink /etc/init.d/rc5.d/dansguardian'

How do I get around this error so that have DansGuardian running at start up?

Thanks

Chuck

There seems to be something strange with the path: /etc/rc.d is a link to /etc/init.d. Try to create the link from /etc/init.d/rd5.d/S99dansguardian to /etc/init.d/dansguardian.

You can try to use the YaST Runlevel Editor to create this link. If the script is in /etc/init.d, it should appear listed and you can activate it for the runlevel you like.
