Hey all, I am working on adding some material to the init.d section of several servers. I am adding a script which loads a custom application for 7 users. Getting this script to run on boot is not a problem so far..... the problem is that the script only gets to 3 or 4 of the users applications on boot. I can run this script manually, so I know its not a permission issue. Im guessing that loading all 7 of these applications is either taking too long or using too many resources - or both. After doing some reading Im wondering if the 'batch' or 'at' commands might help to alleviate any load issues on boot and allow all 7 applications to start everytime the server does..... I would be grateful for any suggestions or comments. This would make my life a lot easier as this is effecting 7 or more users over 15 servers - and will grow monthly.
