UnrealIRCd Forums

Hi,

I finally got unrealircd to work. Now, I would like to know how I can have unrealircd start at system boot?
I assume that I'd have to add unreal to /etc/init.d? Or am I wrong about that?

You'd be better off using a crontab simply because init.d would run Unreal as root which isnt a good idea.

What cron entry and/or entries would I need?

As the user running Unreal, do the following:

Type: crontab -e
add the line: @reboot cd /home/youruser/Unreal3.2 && ./unreal start
