It depends on distro you are using. The easiest way (though not the best I think) is to add an entry into "rc.local" file (I think you should find somewhere in /etc subdirectories, because it depends on distro). Second way is to use special tool to add service to startup, for example: Gentoo: rc-update add autofs default SUSE (at least SLES): user graphical application yast, and choose Runlevel editor (i do not know the command line equivalent) Red Hat(and fedora core, Mandrake too, I think...): system-config-services (graphical tool), or chkconfig --add autofs Ubuntu (i think debian too): tool rcconf Arturas M. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
