You put it into /etc/rc.d/init.d/, you make symlink (probably using chkconfig, ntsysv, tksysv or serviceconf program) named S95xxx and K05xxx into /etc/rc#.d (where # is the number of runlevel), and sensors service (which starts lm_sensors modules, runs sensors -s and starts sensord) will be started automatically at startup/reboot and stopped at shutdown. One could also start/stop service manually. > Also is there any problem with calling it 'sensors' > when we already have a 'sensors' program? No, the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ is not [normally] in path. -- Jakub Nar?bski Poland
