Re: [pfSense Support] Custom startup scripts
Can this be done via the xml to be truly portable?

Re: [pfSense Support] Custom startup scripts
You can't make init scripts in the XML config file, no. I don't think it's quite within the scope of a configuration file to store scripts, anyway. But if you have something you want to be run on boot, use shellcmd and earlyshellcmd. Tortise wrote: Can this be done via the xml to be truly portable?

Don't forget it's XML and needs to have html entities escaped ( become gt;) else you'll blow up your config file rather spectacularly. rm /tmp/config.cache after editing also, else you'll likely get your changes overwritten from cache. --Bill - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
