Hi!
I haven't found any way to start XYmon automatically at boot time... It need to be started by user hobbit, and when I used update-rc it was added in the startscripts, but I can't figure out how to get it started by user hobbit... Anybody knows how to do this?

This is in generally how I add something to the start and stop procedure.
This should work on any linux distribution.
Make a file /etc/init.d/xymon with contents
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in start) <start command> ;; stop) <stop command> ;; esac
exit 0
Make this file executable and create the needed symlinks:
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc0.d/K09xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc1.d/K09xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc2.d/S91xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc3.d/S91xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc4.d/S91xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc5.d/S91xymon ln -s /etc/init.d/xymon /etc/rc6.d/K09xymon

Hello Mathias
I would like to share my own Hobbit starting script, working the same for Xymon
cat /etc/init.d/hobbit-client
#!/bin/bash
USER_HOBBIT="hobbit"
PROG_PATH="/opt/hobbit-monitor"
HOBBIT_PID="${PROG_PATH}/client/logs/clientlaunch.${HOSTNAME}.pid"
cd /
case "$1" in start) su ${USER_HOBBIT} -c "${PROG_PATH}/client/runclient.sh start" ;; stop) su ${USER_HOBBIT} -c "${PROG_PATH}/client/runclient.sh stop" ;;
restart) su ${USER_HOBBIT} -c "${PROG_PATH}/client/runclient.sh restart" ;;
status) su ${USER_HOBBIT} -c "${PROG_PATH}/client/runclient.sh status" ;;
*) echo "Usage: $NAME {start|stop|restart|status}" >&2 exit 3 ;; esac
--- END ---
Please, fix according to your Xymon username and installation path :
USER_HOBBIT="?"
PROG_PATH="?"
Good luck
