Im setting up a home media server and want to use Transmission to download torrents with via the web frontend. I need Transmission to start on bootup of openSuse 11.1 as a serverice/daemon and am wondering how to do it? I have installed Transmission via the packman rep through yast, but have no idea how to set it as a service/daemon.
Thanks

Andreas suggestion of making a daemon using skeleton is very good. If you would like you could also create an rc.local style init script that will allow you to start scripts after services - this is a very handy feature in Red Hat and here is how to do it in Suse - note this is not the same as running it as a deamon really, but often it is very handy to have this method to start things too: http://lists4.suse.de/opensuse/2005-07/msg00937.html -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
