Hi,
I have a script I would like to launch at boot time, as a non-root
user, to remain running in the background. What is the best way to
accomplish this? I looked through the rc* stuff, and it looks like
overkill for what I need, plus my scripting isn't that strong either.
I know I can do something like: su - user -c "script_to_run"
But I don't even know what's the best place to include that.
Any suggestions, or examples?
A sample script could be /etc/rc.d/sysctl, it contains a block
sysctl_start() which is executed when you run # /etc/rc.d/sysctl start
Using that as a sample you can insert you custom startup code.
Cheers, Erik
