[nos-bbs] RPI Raspbian Stretch Jnos autostart and restart automatically

[Jose Ng Lee]

Thanks Tom.

It was easier in Raspbian Wheezy.

In inittab have 1 line:
#Start JNOS on bootup and respawn it should it crash
JN:2345:respawn:/jnos/startnos

and my startnos file:

#!/bin/sh
#
rm -f /jnos/spool/mqueue/*.lck 2>/dev/null
rm -f /jnos/spool/mail/*.lck 2>/dev/null
#
exec /jnos/jnos -d /jnos -v </dev/tty8>/dev/tty8 2>&1
#

I will have to figure out an easy way to do it in Stretch.

Thanks,
Jose / HP2AT
