howtos:linux [2007/01/24 14:53] mannihowtos:linux [2009/12/26 01:55] – Added Debian link amatubu
Line 1: Line 1:
-====== Startup / Shutdown Script for RedHat and Mandrake ====== +====== Linux Instructions ======
  
-All of the information below assumes you are logged in as root.+This page is a directory to specific instructions for certain Linux distributions. If you cannot find your distribution here, simply follow the [[:howtos:crossplatforminstall|Crossplatform installation instructions]].
  
-Here is a script for %%RedHat%%- it needs to reside in ///etc/init.d///+  * [[Fedora]] 
 +  * [[redhat_mandrake|RedHat]] 
 +  * [[redhat_mandrake|Mandrake]] 
 +  * [[SUSE]] 
 +  * [[Ubuntu]] 
 +  * [[Debian]]
  
-It is based on a script by John Zoetebier for SuSE (The HOWTO forum has the original [[http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=940236&forum_id=234504| script for SuSE]]). 
- 
-You might need to adjust the value of the popfile_home variable if you didn't install popfile to /usr/popfile 
-(e.g. popfile_home=/usr/local/popfile). 
- 
-you will also need to make a symbolic link (see below) in ///etc/rc0.d// and ///etc/rc3.d// 
- 
-you make the link as follows: 
-<code>ln -s /etc/init.d/popfile S??popfile</code> 
-and  
- 
-<code>ln -s /etc/init.d/popfile K??popfile</code> 
- 
-  * where //??// is a number, e.g. 81, or a high number, but it must not be in use by any of the other scripts (do a ls of the directory and choose a non-used number). 
-  * The S = START 
-  * and the K = KILL 
- 
-These scripts are called by the system when it is shutting down the process or starting it at boot time. 
- 
-You only need to put a K??popfile entry in //rc0.d//, as this is the runlevel used when Linux shuts down. 
- 
-You will also need to make the 'popfile' script executable by typing: 
- 
-<code>chmod uga+x popfile</code> 
- 
-which makes it executable by everyone (all, group, user). If you only want root to run the script, then use: 
- 
-<code>chmod u+x popfile</code> 
-
