[Asterisk-Users] Auto Start
Hi all, Is there any way to get * to start when linux boots? I am running Red Hat 8.0, but a remote site I am testing IAX with has power problems and the server there keeps re-booting, would be nice if everything started up again automatically. I noticed this in the list the other day, I suggest people download and install dameontools http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html and have asterisk as a supervised service. If it fails, supervise will restart it after 5 seconds. Regards...Martin Would this do the trick, or is this just when the system has already been run. Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Do I add the safe_asterisk to the rc.local file? You may tell I am new to Linux.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Auto Start
Yup, I did modprobe when I loaded everything. If I issue the reboot command then I see the zaptel being unloaded.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Auto Start
Hi, Just back from the Rugby match, (we won), and am now trying again to get asterisk to auto start without being there when the server reboots. Wipe Out asked: Have you got the zaptel drivers loading at startup? This can either be done by using modprobe commands in the rc.local or by using the init script that comes with the zaptel source.. just run make config from /usr/src/zaptel (AFAIK only for redhat).. I can see them unload when I issue the reboot command. Just before the Logon prompt appears on boot I see a message but it goes before I can read it and the prompt to logon appears. If I scroll back up the screen the message is not there. I now have only ./safe_asterisk in my rc.local file.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Auto Start
Dave, After the system boots up, you check to see which modules are loaded by doing a lsmod. zaptel and others that you need should be listed. If not you can manually add modprobe zaptel and the other drivers into your rc.local file. Paul Just before the Logon prompt appears on boot I see a message but it goes before I can read it and the prompt to logon appears. If I scroll back up the screen the message is not there. I now have only ./safe_asterisk in my rc.local file. Dave ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
