So...I'm onto my problem...the runlevel itself! /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S85httpd is Full multiuser mode (normal operation)
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S85httpd is Runlevel 3 + XWindows login In all my earlier posts note that I'm setting rc3.d! % ln -s /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S85httpd Now, that's the ticket. Thanks for the debugging help. No offense taken, Rick. ;) Robert, I'm still interested in any help with the script. :D Tim > -----Original Message----- > From: Rick Carroll [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 10:33 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: init/runlevel help needed in RHL 8. > > > Tim, > Sorry if I came off snooty earlier...
