- Hi all. We have several terminal servers that sit on our Ethernet and allow
- users to log into any of our systems (including a HP 9000/375). The terminal
- servers use UDP protocol to download operational software, when they are
- brought up. This requires a daemon running on one or more hosts and we have
- this daemon running on a Sun but are partially unsuccessful on the HP. I
- compiled the daemon software, ran it, and test booting a terminal server, and
- everything seems to work. Next I placed the line "/etc/erpcd" into the rc
- file, but the daemon isn't running after we reboot the HP!!!!???? Is there
- something really stupid, that I am forgetting? The file protection is 755
- and is owned by 'bin'. I tried the line 'if [ -x /etc/erpcd ] then /etc/erpcd'
- and some other variations (even with echo stmts) and it echos that it is
- being started, but when checking later, there is no daemon running!
-
- Bottom line is that I have to type /etc/erpcd *every* time after the system
- restarts. There has to be a better way. Any ideas?
