I'd put it somewhere late in the runlevel sequence of events. Like, say 30 or so. On my SLES10 it's killed as no 10 and started as no 12. As root, goto /etc/init.d/rc3.d and do: ln -s ../postgresql S30postgresql Symlinks preceded by an "S" starts stuff. "K" kills stuff. See "man init.d" Actually I wouldn't do it by hand at all. I'd use YaST under System, Runlevel services. In there, I'd set it to run in runlevel 3 (and 5 for that matter). I'd also use YaST to start and stop the service. That should really do it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard Novell Certified Linux Professional 10035701 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
