Hello List-ers,
I know that this really doesn't belong to this list but again this is the o=
nly
list that has people who speak a language that I can understand.
I have a problem (BIG) for which I hope someone here has a solution. I'm as=
king
this here because of a new terminology that I just learnt while treading on=
the
alien world of Linux.=20
We have a machine that runs Oracle. I am trying to get Oracle to be started
automatically when the machine reboots. That machine is Redhead (Redhat) 6.2
and Oracle is 8.0.5 and I've managed but without understanding why I was do=
ing
certain things, particularly the symlinking. One has to link a control scri=
pt
in at least 5 directories..
ln -s /path/to/scriptx /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/Kscriptx,
ln -s /path/to/scriptx /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/Sscriptx
Now I find life quite easy with FreeBSD because all I have to do is stick t=
he control
script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ in most cases (because I don't use rc.local)=
and things
just work - voila!.
In this other world of Linux there are some things called 'run levels': Do =
we also
have run levels in FreeBSD???
Thanks for bearing with me on this OT issue.
