I am wondering if someone would be so kind to look at what I have for an
interface script and tell me how far off base I am. What I am trying to do is
to install an sl0 interface to tie the linux kernel to an application .
Slattach is the daemon that is used..
I used chkconfig --add rc.slip to tell my system that this script exists.
That works fine, and it gets installed when I reboot . I know however that it
is not sophisticated and is missing various things such as a 'start' and
'stop' function. I have no idea how to install that part, even though I am
still looking over other scripts found in /etc/rc.d/init.d...
Here is what I have so far:
----------------------
#!/bin/bash
#
# chkconfig: 2345 85 15
# description: rc.slip adds a link between jnos and the kernel
# interface: slattach
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
# Source networking configuration and check that networking is up.
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/network ] ; then
. /etc/sysconfig/network
[ ${NETWORKING} = "no" ] && exit 0
fi
#[ -x /sbin/slattach ] || exit 0
#prog=slattach
#RETVAL=0
#start () {
# echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
/sbin/slattach -s 38400 -p slip /dev/ptypf &
sleep 2
/sbin/ifconfig sl0 44.135.34.209 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast
44.135.34.255
sleep 1
/sbin/route add -net 44.135.34.210 netmask 255.255.255.255 sl0
sleep 1
