Hi folks, For my startup/init process (/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/), I have S60NFS followed by S85httpd and S85tomcat. If for some reason the NFS mounts from /etc/fstab fail, and tomcat and httpd startup without access to the NFS mounted file system, then tomcat can get into a mess as my default program running in tomcat requires indexes that are in the NFS partitions. Is there any way that I can tell the startup process to _not_start httpd and tomcat if the nfs mounts fail, or is this the kind of thing that should be handled at program level? I see in the net/free BSD versions on rc.d that there are "PROVIDE/REQUIRE" type switched that can be added to scripts in /etc/init.d that make sure certain processes are started before others, but I dont see any linux (or more specifically redhat) references to such options ... thanks for any pointers, Richard -- theBlueSage <tbs-Gb/NUjX2UK8 at public.gmane.org>
