Suse 10.1, Start program on boot

[vwgtiturbo]

I recently upgraded a server to Suse 10.1, in order to have RPM compatibility AND Wake on LAN... I was wondering... How would I set a program to start on boot (or runlevel 3ish)? My RAID monitoring software needs to be started before it is useful, and I don't want to have to start it over my SSH connection every time... Thanks in advance!

Create the script to start in /etc/rc3.d/ for run level 3.

So, I would just need to make a file, have one line in it stating the program name (it is in my PATH), make the file executable, and put it in the /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/ directory? If I also wanted it to run in runlevel 5, would I also need to copy the file to rc5.d, or do you think symbolically linking it would work?

Take a look at a few samples there and you will see ...

YOu also need to give it a shell (sh or bash or whatever). And then put the order in. S stands for start, K stands for Kill, number like 01, 91 or whatever, then your file name. You want the number higher than your other things but later than networking module. So on and so forth.
