Hey, Thanks for replying. The server is on Linux and is remotely hosted, my local machine is on win2k pro.
A client wants me to set this up, I have setup the whole thing but this needs to be started.... you keep mentioning "command line", what command line? You mean I should SSH in? (As you can see, am a newbie in shell scripts and ssh etc - kindly excuse) Kindly reply. Thanks, -Ryan [snip] #!/bin/sh <scriptname> start (or) <scriptname> stop [/snip] It is a shell script. They are usually placed in /usr/local/bin/ and chmod'd to execute. To run it you type this at the command line; scriptname start (or) scriptname stop This script accepts one argument, either 'stop' or 'start' [/snip] I should have added that you can run them from other folders using the './scriptname arg' from the command line.
