1 This directory contains some scripts for auto-starting BackupPC
4 The subdirectory src contains source versions of these scripts (before
5 various absolute paths have been filled in).
7 Here are instrcutions for different OSs. Please submit additions
8 or improvements to this list!
13 When configure.pl is run, the script linux-backuppc is created. It
14 should be copied to /etc/init.d/backuppc:
16 cp linux-backuppc /etc/init.d/backuppc
18 After copying it, you can test it by running these commands as root:
20 /etc/init.d/backuppc start
21 /etc/init.d/backuppc status
22 /etc/init.d/backuppc stop
24 You should then run the following commands as root:
26 chkconfig --add backuppc
27 chkconfig --level 345 backuppc on
28 chkconfig --list backuppc
30 This will auto-start backuppc at run levels 3, 4 and 5.
35 When configure.pl is run the shell script solaris-backuppc is created.
36 This should be copied to /etc/init.d and links made in /etc/rc3.d
39 cp solaris-backuppc /etc/init.d/backuppc
40 ln -s /etc/init.d/backuppc /etc/rc3.d/S85backuppc
41 ln -s /etc/init.d/backuppc /etc/rc0.d/K85backuppc
43 This will auto-start backuppc at run level 3 and stop it at run level 0.
45 *** NOTE: the solaris startup script and instructions have not been tested ***
