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?

Thanks.
