Starting mvprelay via init.d

I have created a script to start and stop mvprelay via the init.d process. The script is for Ubuntu 7.10 - the Gutsy Gibbon.

Download mvprelay_init.tar.gz to /tmp


cd /

sudo tar xvfz /tmp/mvprelay_init.tar.gz

vim /etc/default/mvprelay

1. Update the MEDIA_SERVER variable with your server's IP address
2. save the file

sudo update-rc.d mvprelay start 50 2 3 4 5 .

/etc/init.d/mvprelay start

This process should extract the files to the correct location under /etc (/etc/init.d and /etc/default). The update-rc.d command sets mvprelay to start in run modes 2, 3, 4 , 5 and priority 50 (which should be after the dhcpd, tftp mysql servers have started).

I have test the script, it starts, it stops, it restarts. mvpmc boots up from a cold boot. Other than that it is completely untested so your results may differ. No warranty provided, but I will help where I can.
