If you know how to start a program u can simply put it in the rc.local at the end and it will start. I do the same myself too.

Thnx for your reply Confucius,

I tried to do that but it didn't work (e-smith 5.1.2) could you mail me an example ?
I need to start the following program lcdproc -s 127.0.0.1 C -p 13666

TIA

Try with "lcdproc -s 127.0.0.1 C -p 13666 &"
Or maybe "lcdproc -s localhost C -p 13666 &"

I would put the full path inthere too, like :

/usr/sbin/lcdproc -s 127.0.0.1 C -p 13666 &

If the file is located in the /usr/sbin offcourse. This to make sure the server can find it at all times.
