Thanks.
The 'uname -r' command tells me that my Solaris version is 5.11.
I have been doing some reading and it seems like I would have to put my script in the /etc/init.d/ directory or in a /etc/rc?.d directory (? = run level).
Is this correct? If yes, in which directory should I put my script (and with which run level)?
I have also read about a svcadm command available on Solaris 10 to enable services, but it does not exist in 5.11. Is there anything I should do to 'activate' my service/script in 5.11? Or does copying the script in the proper directory enough?
Thanks,
JVerstry

LEARN ABOUT ULTRIX
nrglbd
nrglbd(8ncs) nrglbd(8ncs)
Name
nrglbd - non-replicating global location broker (GBL) daemon
Syntax
/etc/ncs/nrglbd [ -version ]
Description
The global location broker (GLB), enables clients to locate servers on a network or internet. The GLB database stores the locations (that
is, the network addresses and port numbers) where server processes are running. The GLB maintains this database and provides access to it.
The daemon should run as a background process. It requires no options or arguments. A Local Location Broker daemon ( ) must be running on
the local host when is started.
You can run only one on a network or internet.
On ULTRIX systems, is typically started by a line in such as the following:
/etc/ncs/nrglbd& echo -n ' nrglbd' > /dev/console
Options
-version Display the version of the Network Computing Kernel (NCK) that this belongs to but do not start the daemon. (NCK is part of the
Network Computing System (NCS) on which DECrpc is based.)
Restrictions
This section discusses the procedure to follow if the system running the is taken off-line.
If you restart on the same system and no server on any other system changed state, all things should run as before. If, however, an appli-
cation tries to contact a server that is no longer running or which has different port numbers, the application will fail. The application
also will not see any new server registrations.
If a copy of is not available, you must create an up to date version of the file before restarting To do so, use to query the for registra-
tion data on every system running an DECrpcserver and then use to register all DECrpc servers with the GLB on the new host. Then restart
