Cow gives birth!

[Clinotus]

I added a small 266mhz ,that was laying around to my modest herd, running RH7.0 - I'll have to brush up a bit on my linux to see the client starts a boot. Anyhow, I'm running all my data dumps through a RT314 router Here's to Team Anandtech!!

Russ, do I need to give you any additional info for stats?

edit the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local

at the end of the file add these lines

echo "Starting Dnetc Client"
/path/to/the/dnetc/client/dnetc -quiet &

That will do it.

[linuxnewbee question] so what is the '&' supposed to do [/linuxnewbee question]

 

[Poof]

so what is the '&' supposed to do

It automatically forks the process into the background so that you regain control of the terminal session.

Clinotus,

If you are going through the same router, and thus the same IP address, nope, nothing additional is needed. And, congratulations on that baby cow.

Poof,

"Forks"? HeHe, I don't know about you, but some of the Linux language cracks me up. Matter of fact, I frequently use a very similar word when I'm trying to get the boxes to behave.

some of the Linux language cracks me up.

Tell me about it! It's true unix-speak!

Stuff like "child processes" and "kill[ing]" a process or even "hup[ping]" a process.

The app names like "grep" and "awk", etc., is what cracks me up the most!
