Hello Group,

Sorry to confuse, We are trying to run the Build Forge Agent by Logging to
USS from putty. I see the below command given in /etc/inetd.conf :

bfagent stream tcp nowait root /u/users/bfagent bfagent bfagent stream
tcp6 nowait root /u/users/bfagent bfagent

Is there a way to invoke the bfagent automatically after every IPL instead
of giving ./bfagent -s .
