Here I am attempting to restate the problem by rearranging your words: - You were "trying to get a small script working which should sync some folders" ... "The Desktop folder with a dropbox folder." - The script is/was called "Sync". You "placed this in /etc/init.d and made it executable". - You created "symbolic links ... in rc0.d and rc6.d": "ln -s /etc/init.d/Sync /etc/init.d/rc0.d/K10Sync ln -s /etc/init.d/Sync /etc/init.d/rc6.d/K10Sync" - Now the "system hangs up at the point directly after the server directory 389 is reached and is marked with the green OK in the startup screen". It seems to me you are describing the boot process that can be viewed immediately after booting the operating system if you escape out of (or earlier disable) the "boot splash screen." If so, then the system is "hanging" before the log-in greeter screen is displayed. (The log-in greeter is where you enter your username and password to sign into your desktop. The system has already, theoretically successfully booted by this time.) Have you tried waiting a long time to see if the "hanging" process eventually times out? You might discover that you are able to sign into your desktop normally just by being patient. :-)) You also wrote "I already deleted the files, but still the same problem..." Can you please clarify that you have actually deleted both "Sync" *and* the symlinks ? You also wrote "i might have changed some stuff in /etc/sysctl editor in yast or with regard to the runlevels init.d , but not being aware of it." These values are easily checked. If you go here http://www.novell.com/documentation/suse91/suselinux-adminguide/html/ch13s07... you'll see it says "The files where the most important SUSE LINUX settings are stored are located in the /etc/sysconfig directory." and "Do not modify the /etc/sysconfig files if you lack previous experience and knowledge. It could do considerable damage to your system. The files in /etc/sysconfig include a short comment for each variable to explain what effect they actually have." So, if you need to, you can boot into a 'live dvd' or the rescue system and sanity check the settings. hth & regards, Carl P.S.: I was interrupted and called away while writing this. Carlos is on the same track and I have to leave now. Good luck, Benjamin! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
