Does your version of CentOS have the @reboot crontab option? If it does this is probably easier unless you want to learn how to write systemd files.

So I was told: Add the off bit to /etc/rc.local Add it above "exit 0" So of course, CentOS is past using rc.local and recommends: # It is highly advisable to create own systemd services or udev rules # to run scripts during boot instead of using this fi So can someone point me to how to make this into a simple systemd service? thanks _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
