--5mCyUwZo2JvN/JJP Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable 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. -Wash S y s t e m s A d m i n i s t r a t o r -- ~\\_ =20 Odhiambo Washington \\\\ =20 Wananchi Online Ltd., `\\\\\ =20 1st Flr Loita Hse, Loita Street |\\\\\ =20 PO Box 10286,00100-NAIROBI,KE. \\\\\|__.--~~\ =20 Fax: 254 2 313985-9 _--~ / =20 Fax: 254 2 313922 /~ ////// _-~~~~' =20 E-mail: wash@wananchi.com ('-//////-// =20 URL : http://www.wananchi.com //////(((-) =20 GSM: 254 72 743 223 / 254 733 744 121 /////" =20 _///" =20 +++ Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they AREN'T after you. --5mCyUwZo2JvN/JJP Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE759ijn7LIsuxjem8RAnn8AJ9A92XXpevFPMv3iZ/lx7G69hCP5QCfY1WD IyGgQ0sHUAFys52EFkvBv8Y= =W8Xg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --5mCyUwZo2JvN/JJP-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
