Execute script at start up

[Guest]

Hi,

I need something equivalent to rc.local in endian, a path or file that i can put a script in it to do something during the start up

Any suggestions ?.

Thanks

You can put custom startup scripts in /etc/rc.d/start/
Just have a look at other scripts there and create another accordingly. The number in the filename determines the order of the scripts to boot.
If you want something running after the other scripts you can create a script called 99myscript.
Also dont forget to make it executable with chmod +x 99myscript

Thanks for you help; what you have stated seems to be logic but i have tried it with no hope didn't work at all and I followed what you mentioned,

I'm trying to put some iptables rules as start up if there is any other way to make this, let me know please. Thanks for you help anyway .

Hi. I also tried and the script didn't run on reboot.

I have a custom script for traffic shaping that I can run fine manually form the ssh console, but I want to be able to set it to run on boot.

Thanks.

Thanks alot for offering help that way :

my script is very very simple. It consists of iptables lines , regular commands I mean. Let say something like below

iptables -t nat - I PORSTROUTING -s 10.10.10.10 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -I INPUT 192.168.1.10 -j ACCEPT 


Waiting for you .
Thanks

for me doesn,t work neither,
besides, at version 2.5.1 there is NO files in /etc/rc.d/start
and when I put smth there (even with 775 permitions) it does not start automatically.
(at 2.4. worked ok)

This method is not working with EFW 3.0.

Any one knows how to execute one script at start up on EFW 3?
