[Xymon] Startup script for xymon on Ubuntu

I followed all of these instructions, made the script and placed it in my startup which is located in /etc/init.d/rc6.d I restarted and it didn't work. When I test the script it works but it prompts me for the password of the user. How do I get past this. I did so the chmod 755 command.

Let me clarify, you need to modify /etc/init.d/hobbit so the variables at the top match how you installed Xymon.

Just execute those commands (as root) and you'll be done.

    I am still learning about Linux and am not sure how to do
    this. I searched online and found the following:

    cd /etc/init.d
    wgethttp://iam8up.com/xymon-initd/hobbit
    chmod 755 hobbit
    ln -s /etc/init.d/hobbit /etc/rc3.d/S70hobbit

    I rebuilt the server from scratch this morning and am actually using the 4.3.5 version
    released today so I am sure the above doesn't apply.  I am running Ubuntu 11.4
    Sorry to be such a novice.

    Put a start up script in /etc/rc3.d or /etc/rc5.d

        It's working now. I restarted the xymon.sh service.  Not
        sure what happened.


        When I click to view a report on my xymon installation I
        get "Cannot load host configuration".  I am not sure what
        I messed up.  I can see the main page just fine it's just
        when I click on a smiley face.  In my apache logs I see
        'Could not connect to Xymon deamon at 127.0.0.1:1984
        <http://deamon at 127.0.0.1:1984> (Connection refused);
        'xymonboard fields=hostname,testname,disabletime,dismsg'

        All I did was reboot the server.
