Ubuntu :: Gnunetd Process Running At Startup?
Dec 5, 2010
I installed Gnunet (a secure P2P program) on Ubuntu 10.10 using Ubuntu software centre but had difficulties getting it to work so removed it. However, the gnunetd process loads at startup. It is only visible when typing 'top' in the console and not in the system monitor list of processes.gnunetd --version tells me that it is 0.8.1b sudo apt-get remove gnunetd tells me 'unable to locate package' why the process loads and how to remove it? I can kill it in the console but would like a way of getting rid of it permanently.

I have not been able to find any information on this, mostly because I am sure I am searching for the wrong terms. Let me explain what it is I need to do.I have a timeclock process that needs to be running all the time on my Red Hat server. Right now, I manually start the process from terminal:Code:# ./timeclockThis runs the process inside the terminal. The only problem is that if I close the terminal by accident, the timeclock stops working. This is all well and good for now, until I get more timeclocks.Then I will need to have one terminal open per. What I would like to do is to make this process run at start up, and run behind the scenes (no terminal). At the same time, I need to be able to re-run the process (again, hopefully behind the scenes) in case the timeclock goes offline or the process crashes.I know very basic things about Linux administration, and I know it is possible to do this (as there are processes now setup by someone else that do this), I just do not know how. EDIT: An idea I had would be to make the script run every minute, checking to see if the process is already running, and if it is not, then to start it. That way it would automatically correct itself if it went offline.

I have a script that needs to start executing on startup. Because I originally wrote it for MacOSX I never cared to learn how to daemonize it (thanks launchd!). Are there any relatively easy ways to run it on startup on debian to?

Sometimes I connect to my Debian box from another computer (using SSH on Cygwin or Linux), and once ina while I want to run some console apps. And sometimes some of these apps might complain about "another intance, Error: an instance of newsbeuter is already running (PID: 2496)". Is there a work around for this issue at all(without killing the original instance") ? The reason I do not want to kill the app because there might be 2 users connected to the same machine that might be using the same app.

I recently got a new HDD for my laptop. Did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04. The install worked fine, updated everything with update manager. The problem: Sometimes the startup process fails, but this only occurs randomly. When startup fails I am left with a black screen with a line of strange pixelated red characters along the very top of the screen (they actually remind me of that old space-invaders game). This occurs before the boot-splash or login screen can appear. The system in this condition will not respond even to a REISUB command. It has to be hard-booted. Most of the time however, Ubuntu boots up fine with not a problem to be seen.
I also had this same error occur once when using the 10.04 live CD. (Please note: the cd is not the problem, I always check my md5 sums on downloads and verify burns).

I am trying to make a file run at startup (e.g. runlevel 5). Here is what I done;
Copied file to /etc/init.d/rc5.d with these permissions:
-rwx------ 1 root root 274 Mar 17 08:33 noip2.sh
Contents of this file is:
Code:
#! /bin/sh
# . /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions # uncomment/modify for your killproc
case "$1" in
start)
echo "Starting noip2."
[Code]....
And the file this is supposed to run is in /usr/local/bin/noip2 with the permissions as:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 80431 Mar 17 08:16 noip2
However, this didn't worked for me. What can I do?
Edit: I can run shell file by invoking it with terminal. So there is no problem with the file

I recenlty set up a headless linux home server by my router will my spare computer parts. I have NFS and even a COD4 server running on it for my friends and me. Because the box is headless, I take controll over it with ssh and start the COD4 server from there, but the problem is, if I close the terminal I have the ssh running from, it closes my server, meaning my desktop needs to be up and running the entire time. That kinda ruins the point of my server
So my question is, is there a way for me to run the command so that it will not close with the terminal AND that I can still send commands to the server.

If I run top, there's a process plymouthd always running, often taking a few percents of CPU. I found that "plymouth" would be a splash screen. My PC is booted already though, I don't need a splashscreen once it has booted. Is this a bug? How can I get rid of this process that always uses %CPU?

Maybe someone can shed some light on this process that is running. It is using my CPU about 100% since there are 2 instances of it running with about 50% used by each.abc_sieve_2.10_i686-pc-linux-gnuI've never noticed it running before and don't think I've installed anything except updates.

I just installed Wine (1.1.3* dev release) and installed Notepad++ (OSS) and Net Meter (Freeware, the latest beta is actually OSS too). I also intend to install a few other things later. The only failure so far is the latest WinSCP So it made me wonder about what running a process/software as "root" actually means. When I use U.S.C or 'apt-get install' to install software on my computer, and type my password, it displays that keyring icon on my systray.
Does this mean I am root at that moment? And how about running wine, the wine processes, and any windows *.exe I'm installing and running? I basically am afraid that I am running all the wine-related stuff as root, even though there is no indication that I at least have elevated privileges. What is/are the worst-case scenario(s) about wine?

Code:

The above should list the process, if I put it into terminal this is incorrect?

I've installed ssh, as well as a script of my own, in /etc/init.d, and I've added both of them to the startup sequence (I've tried both the "rcconf" graphical utility, and "update-rc.d"). The installation utilities seem to be working just fine and report success, and everything seems to be where it should be, but on reboot, my startup scripts don't start up.
I have these scripts running on MANY machines withOUT the GDM/Gnome Desktop running. On this ONE machine, though, I have Gnome running.
Is there some fundamental difference between the GUI Desktop's startup sequence and the text-mode-only startup sequence?

I have just installed a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 x64 installation. I have a script that I am added manually that is not starting on startup like it should, but I also have 2 normal startup scripts that are not running either. Apache2 and mt-daapd are 2 applications that I installed with sudo apt-get install apache2 mt-daapd. Neither application is starting during bootup. I tried making sure there were in the rc.d by using update-rc.d but both said that they already existed. Another script (mount_data) I made myself also has been added and is executable like it should be that isn't running at bootup.

I noticed my computer seemed to be running excessively noisily, and upon checking into System Monitor, I noticed that my CPU was being held constantly at 100%. None of the processes listed on the process tab seemed t be responsible, but I found this thread which gave me the 'top' command.
Running it, I found a process running as root called 'bmcapture' that was responsible for the CPU use. Trying to 'kill' it failed; using 'sudo kill' gave me no error messages, but the process continued to run. This carried on through a restart.
I then proceeded to shut the computer down and leave it off for a minute. When I booted up again, the CPU was still running at full, and using 'top' I determined the same process was responsible; however, 'sudo kill' successfully killed it this time, with apparently no adverse effects.
My question is if anyone has any information about what 'bmcapture' is, whether its harmful (aside from the obvious issue of it using full CPU) or malicious, and if there's any way to stop it running on startup, because as it is I'm having to manually 'sudo kill' it every time I turn my computer on to stop it eating my CPU alive.

I've just installed Unison. I created the default profile, selecting one of my subdirectories as the source. That done, the GUI disappeared, although a unison-2.32.52- process remained running. I can start another GUI session and, regardless of if I kill the old process, I can only choose my profile before the GUI disappears again. There is no opportunity to do anything else useful, such as selecting a destination directory.

There is text based game in the Ubuntu repos called gomoku (just 5 in a row) it comes with the package bsdgames. The manual page [URL] lists an option (-b) to run it in the background. I want to try that and if I know how it works create a simple graphical front-end. When I start the program with:
Code:
gomoku -b
it starts and remains active, the terminal does not return to prompt which is OK as the command is not finished. The manual says the program reads from stdin, and this might sound stupid but how to get anything there?
I've tried to pipe an echo command to gomoku which works but ends the program after is receives input.
Code:
echo "black" | gomoku -b
just finishes. After that when you type another command like:
Code:
echo "justsometext" | gomoku -b
gomoku tells it expects either black or white as input. So it forgot the previous "black" because it is a new instance.
How do I pass text to an already running gomoku?

Is it possible, using ps, to determine where a process is running from? I have two applications, both are identical and running in parallel directories, such as /app1/start.sh and /app2/start.sh. If I run ps -ef then I'm unable to tell the difference between the two
Using ps (or alternative), how can I tell that PID 123 belongs to app1?

I run Ubuntu 10.04. For some reason, MySQL won't start on startup. How do I make it run on startup? I installed it by installing LAMP using tasksel and did everything according to: [URL]. Also, I have another problem: When I try to start/stop/restart mysql in the terminal, the terminal will not give me any prompts after entering the command. E.g., after entering "sudo service mysql start", nothing will happen. Even after waiting for 30min, nothing happens.
