Klaus, Thanks for the info. I did try the following:
Added a new user: adduser kea -s /sbin/nologin Created the file: /etc/systemd/system/kea.service [Unit] Description=kea Service After=network.target [Service] Type=simple User=kea ExecStart=/usr/local/sbin/keactrl start Restart=on-abort [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target Then I type this command: systemctl start kea Then I check it with this command: systemctl status kea [root@localhost todsimmo]# systemctl status kea ‚óè kea.service - kea Service Loaded: error (Reason: Invalid argument) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2016-07-20 14:01:45 CDT; 5min ago Main PID: 4111 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) I’ve also tried calling the kea-dhcp4 command, but it doesn’t work either. Any help is appreciated, Todd From: Klaus Steden <klausfi...@gmail.com<mailto:klausfi...@gmail.com>> Date: Wednesday, July 20, 2016 at 9:13 PM To: Todd Simmons <todsi...@cisco.com<mailto:todsi...@cisco.com>> Cc: "kea-users@lists.isc.org<mailto:kea-users@lists.isc.org>" <kea-users@lists.isc.org<mailto:kea-users@lists.isc.org>> Subject: Re: [Kea-users] Auto start CentOS 7 uses systemd. I'm by no means an expert on it, but you may be able to shoehorn systemd into thinking that it's a managed service (there's apparently legacy support for SVR4-style init scripts) using systemctl. Again, being still new to systemd myself, I can't really offer much useful advice beyond that, but that's where I'd start looking. hth, Klaus On Wed, Jul 20, 2016 at 5:25 PM, Todd Simmons (todsimmo) <todsi...@cisco.com<mailto:todsi...@cisco.com>> wrote: Kea Users, I’m on CentOS 7 running the Kea 1.0.0 server without issues. My only problem is that if my system is shutdown or rebooted I have to manually run “keactrl start” to get the server running again. What options do I have to have the DHCP server startup automatically? I tried chkconfig, but keactrl or the kea-dhcp4/6 are not listed as services.
