The script also run when I boot since the logger actually logs the "GHServer: Starting" text to the /var/log/messages file. However, my
service actually does not start. There is no pid to be found anywhere, there are no error logs anywhere, just nothing. I might be doing something wrong here but is there someone who's gone through this process and can provide some samples how they did it? Any help will be greatly appreciated.<BR><BR>Kind Regards,<BR>Don<BR><BR><BR></FONT><PRE><HR width="90%" SIZE=4>
