Pandu, |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
I haven't checked the source yet, but I'm wondering if the scripts are |
| 57 |
looking for the "conf.d" file in the location: |
| 58 |
" ../conf.d " (based from the actual location of the init-script) |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Can you try the following: |
| 61 |
# mkdir -p /opt/wallmator/initscripts/conf.d |
| 62 |
# ln -s /etc/init.d/gatewall /opt/wallmator/initscripts/conf.d/gatewall |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
and then recreate the original link for the init-script. |
| 65 |
