I have been looking around on the net a bit and I cannot quite seem to find out how to add a service/dameon to run at start up. I have been trying to include hxd (the hotline server clone) in the inetd.conf, but I keep getting errors that the service is unrecognized. The server works fine if I just launch it from /usr/local/shxd-0.2.1/run/. (now I do have to do it with ./hxd, I hope thats not the problem. Theres no flags needed, or gui or anything and it doesn't matter who launches it.) I have read a lot of stuff, and this may be just right under my noise, but a little help would be great! Thanks so much! Docs, urls, I'd like pretty much anything. Terry. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
