[Asterisk-Users] Auto Starting Asterisk

[Chris Albertson]

Look in the directory /etc/init.d (/etc/rc.d/init.d on
some systems)

You put a script in there called "asterisk".  There is a
sample called "asterisk.init" in the source.  copy it to
/etc/init.d/asterisk

You may want to study the other files in /etc/init.d to see
how they work. 

Next read the "chkconfig" man page  and  see way you'd want to
type "chkconfig --add asterisk; chkconfig asterisl on"

Finally to start asterisk you can type "./asterisk start"
You may also want to re-boot the computer to verify that
asterisk does start automatically
