Adding scripts to server startup

[sateesh_r]

Hello,

I setup a memcached and want to run this file " /etc/init.d/memcached " when the server boots. I do not know where to add this in order to run at start-up(in which file). Can any one help me in solving this.

Thank you
Satheesh

chkconfig --list |grep memcache
chkconfig memcached on

Actually, i want to automatically run the command that is saved in that file " /etc/init.d/memcached " at startup.

?
Open the file with a texteditor and look for the "start" section.
But why would you want that other than educational purpose?

Starting manually:

/etc/init.d/memcached start

Starting at boot time:

chkconfig memcached on

ok...

its not about memcached, i only mentioned it as an example. if we want to play a sound file or video file automatically when we login

I which file we should have to add the entry

for eg to play a video we use "mplayer filename" this command. i want to know how can we run this command automatically when we login.
