View 3 RepliesIt looks,slackware is taking too much time to boot. It's starting daemons at boot time.
What are those daemons that i can stop at boot time to increase booting time?
What's the best way to stop starting daemons at boot time?
If i do
Code:
su
password:
cd /etc/rc.d
chmod 644 rc.wicd
chmod 644 rc.wireless
will it do the job?

Code:
/etc/init.d/network-manager stop
to rc.local and it did nothing but boot me into the CLI
I have also tried to put
Code:
sudo service network-manager stop and that did nothing also.
After I get network manager to stop on boot up. How do I make it so it will not auto connect to networks? My computer keeps on joining a different network on boot up. And I don't like this as some times I go to my banks website and I am on there network with out realizing it (because of the auto connect) Is there a way to stop this also?
i wanted to know how can I make my programs or script automatically start at boot time ,for example if I restart my server at any time they start at boot time automatically with no need to any body to start them.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a SSH box which is command line only and no X, this will be used remote and i'm trying to get the wireless network configured to start at boot. I'm using wpa_supplicant as the access point is secure with WPA2 At present if I send the following commands the machine will connect to the wifi and be reachable via ssh
ifup wlan0
/usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -D wext -dd -i wlan0 -B
dhclient wlan0
This does not start at boot but requires manual input of the above commands. I've just come to a complete blank on geting this to start at boot time. Also I would like to set a fixed IP for this box.
Every time I boot up I have to go through a disk check and then restart, how do I stop it from happening? When the disk checks happening I press escape and it usually says its deleted inode something because it has zero Dtime or some thing similar and also a paragraph of repeated lines saying something like all system files need alsa base.cnfg it will be ignored in a future release then the disk check completes and it restarts and is fine then, also sometimes it says dev/sda5 (my ubuntu partition) was not cleanly unmounted check forces. Is their a way to stop this happening as it ends up taking ages just to login.

Quote:
/etc/init.d/privoxy start
After restarting the computer privoxy wasn't start automatically. I checked the links in /etc/rcX.d - are o.k. I installed sysv-rc-conf - shows that for runlevel 2 - 5 privoxy is running. I changed /etc/rc2.d/S20privoxy to /etc/rc2.d/S99privoxy - to start that process at the end. I installed Boot-Up Manager. Privoxy is marked for start automatically. I added in /etc/rc.local line: /etc/init.d/privoxy start
Privoxy still doesn't turn on at boot time and every time I must start it manually. Could you tell me how could I repair this ?
What is the correct way to stop upstart services from staring at boot time ? I'm doing something like this example in /etc/init/mysql.conf:
Code:
#start on (net-device-up
# and local-filesystems
# and runlevel [2345])
start on runlevel [!0123456] # I ADDED THIS LINE (and commented the above ones)
stop on runlevel [016]
1. Is this the correct way ?
2. Is there no way of doing something like we do with update-rc.d -f apache2 remove ?
3. When will ubuntu ship a gui to add or remove services from boot ?
I'm trying to configure gpsd 2.96 to start automatically from udev rule on a Slack 13.37 box.1. I've compiled and installed gpsd from sources and made sure it starts manually.2. I've copied the /lib/udev/gpsd.hotplug and /lib/udev/gpsd.hotplug.wrapper scripts in their places from the source tree and made them executable.3. I've copied the gpsd.rules file from sources into /etc/udev/rules.d4. I renamed it 99-persistent-gpsd.rules to run late in the bootup process.5. I've copied the /etc/default/gpsd file from sources and made sure it has the right settings inside.
Now, for the results. If I plug the gps usb dongle in while the system runs, it starts gpsd if it is not started, and it connects to it just as it should. But if I start the system with the dongle in, gpsd doesn't get started during boot. I can't find any relevant message in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages for boot time. There is stuff there from when I plug the dongle in while the system is running though. It's like udev ignores the rules for it at boot time.Is there something in the Slackware boot scripts that would prevent running those scriptssd.hotplug.wrapper which in turn runs /lib/udev/gpsd.hotplug which is a Python script)?Here is the contents of 99-persistent-gpsd.rules (ignore the comments referring to Debian, it was meant for a Debian box). My usb gps adapter is the first one - the Prolific chipset one:
Code:
# udev rules for gpsd

My system was working fine. I followed a thread online to try to get samba to share better, installed "winbind" and now I can't get passed "Checking System Files" on boot up.
Upon boot, "Checking System Files":

Starting samba daemons _ .... Just hangs there forever
Is there a way to get back into my system so that I can uninstall winbind, firestarter, or samba if need be?
I have installed Koha on Debian Lenny. It does work well, but I have to manually start the koha-zebra-ctl.sh by entering /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh start The is, however, that this starts at boot from /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon. Like /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon start (does not work now) In the koha-zebra-daemon file I have:
#!/bin/sh
# Quick start-stop-daemon example, derived from Debian /etc/init.d/ssh
set -e
# Must be a valid filename
[code]....
I have made a symbolic link;
ln -s /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon
I have tried checking whether the symbolic link exists with readlink, but this never seems to return anything anywhere.
I have a little problem here. I tried to copy include directory from g++ to a place where it suppose to be and when i couldn't because of the rights i wrote something like this in the bash:
Code:
Code:
cause i hate when I can't do what I want without tiping command
After few minutes all daemons crashed and now I can't boot normally
in console i've tried
Code:
And that stopped on /prc/756 directory
Well now i can boot normally but most of programs are not working, i can't get to the internet? and it looks like there is no way to become a root cause there is no sudo/
Can i reinstall ubuntu and keep all packages and files on its places?
I've been using cron to clear /tmp at boot time but thought I'd try another method. After doing a little research I added the following line:
Code:
( cd /tmp && rm -rf -- * .* 2>/dev/null )
to /etc/rc.d/rc.S immediately after:
Code:
# Done checking root filesystem
And /tmp is not clearing out at boot time. This method seems to work for others.
Just some things I changed to speed up the boot time.
In '/etc/rc.d/'
rc.acpid
Code:
echo "Starting ACPI daemon: /usr/sbin/acpid &"
/usr/sbin/acpid &
rc.hald
