This might fall in the 'Im an idiot' category rather than in the RedHat problem category, but Im posting nonetheless. I have the following in /etc/inittab: # Run webcam uploading utility - added by slp on 12/18/2003 cam:3:respawn:/home/salvatore/cam/runcam runcam is: [root@home cam]# ls -l runcam -rwxr-xr-x 1 root salvatore 55 Dec 31 09:46 runcam runcam contains: [root@home cam]# cat runcam webcam /home/salvatore/cam/.webcamrc >/dev/null 2>&1 & [root@home cam]# uname -r 2.4.20-27.9 When the system is restarted, runcam doesnt appear in the process list. It also wont run if I type ./runcam. If I, as root, type the contents of runcam at the console, it runs just fine, and will run until killed or the system is restarted again. What is wrong with how I have this set up that it runs when I type the command out, but wont run from the script?
