auto-startup a process

champion · #1 (**permalink**) 11-20-2002

hi,

i just realise that everytimes i boot up my sun solaris 8 sparc, i need to explicitly run the following comand to start up my snmp agent.

cd /etc/rc2.d
./K07dmi start
./K07snmpdx start

i just wonder that how to make it auto-startup once the machine is boot up.

please enlighten me.

thanks

To give an example of how this is supposed to work, in /etc/init.d, we have a script called nfs.server. It is hard-linked to /etc/rc2.d/K60nfs.server and to /etc/rc3.d/S15nfs.server.

The S15 entry starts it up, while the K60 entry shuts it down. I could use any of these to manually start or stop it, but it kinda standard to use "/etc/init.d/nfs.server start", rather than one of the others.

So it sounds like you are missing a S link.
