GAH bootscripts.

[pbharris]

they are vary good looking scripts I must admit.

Thank you, kind sir

[pbharris]

no probelm man credit is due

[Feztaa]

Well, I think more credit is due to the LFS people for writing the functions file, because I didn't do much with the actual script except plug theirs in and use their functions

Would anyone know how to convert this script to RH8.0 and running F@H? Look up at the top for the actual script.

[mcdougrs]

Nevermind I just used a script from someone on the net... it looks pretty good... Had to copy one file and run one additional command REAL simple!!! If anyone else is interested in the script it can be found here.

hey Ian - i think this would be pretty close assuming you are using FAH3Console-Linux.exe

#!/bin/sh
source /etc/init.d/functions
FAH="/home/mcdours/fah/FAH3Console-Linux.exe"
cd /home/mcdours/fah/ >/dev/null 2>&1
case "$1" in
        start)
                echo -n "Starting Folding@Home client ... "
                su mcdours -c "$FAH >/dev/null 2>&1 &"
                evaluate_retval
                ;;
        stop)
                echo -n "Stopping Folding@Home's FAH3Console-Linux.exe ... "
                killproc FAH3Console-Linux.exe
                ;;
        restart)
                $0 stop
                /usr/bin/sleep 1
                $0 start
                ;;
        status)
                statusproc FAH3Console-Linux.exe
                ;;
        *)
                echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status}"
                exit 1
                ;;

Here is my way of automating CLI mode software. I will demo GAH and Audiogalaxy.

First we start the software up at boot time. I use a script to load it a specific way here. I tell /etc/inittab to load it and dump the output to ttys 10,11,12

# Audiogalaxy Startup
10:2345:once:/audiogalaxy/init >/dev/tty10

# Genome@Home Client software
11:2345:once:/gah/ghc1/init >/dev/tty11
12:2345:once:/gah/ghc2/init >/dev/tty12

Next we do the actual scripts.

Audioglaxy

#!/bin/sh
cd /audiogalaxy
./AGSatellite-static 64.245.58.81 21

GAH

#!/bin/sh
cd /gah/ghc1
./ghclient.x

Simple eh?

As for running as a normal user, possibly. Let me look into this.

Something quite simple:

GAH:

#!/bin/sh
su xyz_user -c "/gah/ghc1/ghclient.x"

If I wanted to make this output everything to tty12 then I would do it like this?

cd /home/mcdougrs/fah/ >/dev/null 2>&1

replaced with

cd /home/mcdougrs/fah/ >/dev/tty12

and this?

su mcdougrs -c "$FAH >/dev/null 2>&1 &"

replaced with

su mcdougrs -c "$FAH >/dev/tty12 &"

[Schotty]

looks good, except do you really need the & on the second one?
