Very Computer

Hi,

Does anyone has already find a script which creates a startup script
in /etc/init.d and its hard links in /etc/rc?.d ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Gildas.

What would you expect such a script to do ? The real work is to
come up with what goes into /etc/init.d/xxx and to decide on
the run level and the number yy in rc*.d/Syyxxx and rc*.d/Kyyxxx
(ie. when in the boot stage the script should run).

Creating the links is the least work, which you just as well
do manually.

I have no idea what you're asking.  What should the startup script be?
Why would another script be creating it?

#!/bin/sh
cat > /etc/init.d/createdstartupscript <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
#
# the startupscript goes here
EOF
ln /etc/init.d/createdstartupscript /etc/rc2.d/S99createdstartupscript
ln /etc/init.d/createdstartupscript /etc/rc0.d/K01createdstartupscript
ln /etc/init.d/createdstartupscript /etc/rc1.d/K01createdstartupscript

I don't know if this helps but here is my standard "BareBones.template"
I use to create solaris/linux startup scripts.
