RE: rc.local file doesn't run

[Jamin Collins <JaminC adapt-tele com>]

Your run level is set by "/etc/inittab".  The Line you are looking for looks
something like "id:X:initdefault:" where the X is the run level that will be
started.  This is normally 3 (console) or 5 (X-windows).  Additionally, you
may want to look just below this line for the "# System initialization" the
last section of the line following the listed comment is the script file
that is started to initialize your system.  Hope this helps.

There is a link file called 'S99local' in "/etc/rc.d/rc3.d" and when I open
it opens rc.local file. Where is my run level?

This file should be run automatically unless changes have been made to your
startup process.  On my RH 6.2 box the "rc.local" is run via a symbolic link
of "/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S99local".  You may want to check to see that you have a
link to this file in your run level.

After booting my RedHat 6.1 server I have to manually run the rc.local file
for the script to work. How can I make it run automatically after booting.


Thanks
Nick
