[Xorp-users] suggested init.d scripts to start xorp anyone?

[Brian Atkinson]

Dave,

Below is the script that I use to start xorp at startup. I have installed it in /etc/init.d on Fedora Core 3, and then configured it as a service using the "services" gui provided by the OS.

Hope this helps you out, or at least gives you a starting point for your particular applicaiton.

Best regards,
