I've already tried the various methods already mentioned, but was unable to achieve anything.

you have a statup script?

If so goto /etc/init.d/rc3.d/
type "ln -s S99EQEMu <path to your startup script>"

Make sure your startup script includes full paths to your binaries and such not relative paths.

*Note

This will only start the server you will also have to add a link to rc6.d to use a script to shut down the emu server (or the same script if it's writen properly) rather than have it just killed.

I dont have the In command anywhere on my system :cry:
Thanx anyway

edit: will this method restart crashed zones, or does that need to happen in the script?

LN

ln

not IN

ln is to create a symbolic link.. You have 'ln' on your system...

Do you have a start script or not for the zone and world servers? You didnt answer the question he asked originally....

I've got a start script, its only a basic one.
It only starts the processes, and doesnt keep crashed ones running

Hi

I wrote a c program that keeps zones and world alive in case of a crash. If you would like a copy to use pls PM me with an email address to send it to. I used to run RH9 but it is generic enough it should work with almost any 'nix' flavor OS.
