Both of the above are supposed to start when UnixWare boots. However, in our
case, it is spotty at best. Sometimes the scohelp will start, but port 80
won't and vice versa. Does anyone know exactly how these two programs are
supposed to run so that they start every time automatically when the server
restarts? Right now I am having to issue start commands manually after boot.
Thanks.

huh...I've never had problems with this on my UW7.1.1 box (which version
and patchlevel are you using?). Is there anything showing up in your
syslog? On the console during boot? On the face of it it sounds like
they need to start up later than they are...maybe they need to be demoted
to later in the rc script heirarchy for you.

I think we're going the same direction with this. We did try putting them
later in the rc script and that didn't clear the problem.

The messages during boot say that everything is starting, however, it never
does echo "listening on port [80,457] as nobody."

Hum. Just to make sure you've done this...you have to enable nsfast for
it to start automatically at each boot by issuing the command nsfast enable.

Do you get any relevant messages at startup at all? Or is it like nsfast
isn't being executed at all?

And what version of UW are you running again?

The messages we get at startup are not errors, but, they do not show that
the services are listening on port as nobody.

We have issued the command nsfast enable.

Our UW version is 7.1.1.

Would you mind e-mailing me the text of your two startup scripts (i.e.
Sxxnsfast-80 and Sxxscohelp)? Thanks.

So I take it you don't get any messages at all concerning scohelp or
nsfast? Or do they say they're starting and they don't?

I figured you had, I just wanted to check.

We moved the two script files to load last in rc2.d. Now it loads as it
should and everything is fine. Thanks for all your help. I think the Compaq
EFS stuff was interfering.

You should diff the files to make sure you understand what the EFS broke
(and hopefully why) JIC.

Glad to be of help.
