Hi,
I have two queries for solaris.
1. I am installing my aplication binaries at /opt/../bin. I want to copy
these application binary files from /opt/../bin to /usr/bin and /sbin. How
I can achieve this using script?
2. To start my application during boot what I need to do? Is any file to be
written in init.d/rc2.d/rc3.d ?
I would appreciate if any one who have a demo package example for solaris
send me for reference.
Regards,
Aakash
