Hello All:<BR>
<BR>
In December of 2010 I started using JNOS on my new Ubuntu 10 machine.<BR>
<BR>
I wanted JNOS to automatically start when the computer booted, and a few people helped me do that.<BR>
<BR>
First I was told I needed to change the file: /etc/init/tty4.conf to read the following:<BR>
<BR>
========================================================<BR>
# tty4 - getty<BR>#<BR># This service maintains a getty on tty4 from the point the system is<BR># started until it is shut down again.<BR>
start on runlevel [23]<BR>stop on runlevel [!23]<BR>
respawn<BR># exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 tty4<BR>exec /jnos/startnos tty4<BR>
========================================================<BR><BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Next I had to change the file: /jnos/startnos to read this<BR>
<BR>
========================================================<BR>
rm -f /jnos/spool/mqueue/*.lck 2> /dev/null<BR>
rm -f /jnos/spool/mail/*.lck 2> /dev/null<BR>
exec /jnos/jnos -a 40 -d/jnos </dev/tty4> /dev/tty4 2>&1<BR>
========================================================<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
After rebooting the computer, JNOS did indeed automatically run.<BR>
<BR>
Now, 3 weeks ago JNOS crashed with gibberish across the screen.<BR>
Since that time, JNOS will no longer automatically run on computer bootup.<BR>
<BR>
The tty4 console just has a blinking cursor and is non-responsive if I type<BR>
at the keyboard.<BR>
<BR>
I have tried using a different console to see if it was just a glitch in tty4. No matter what<BR>
console I use, JNOS will no longer automatically run on startup of the computer.<BR>
<BR>
I can go to any active console (say console 3) and change to the /JNOS directory and<BR>
then run JNOS manually just fine.<BR>
<BR>
Looking at the logs for tty4 I see this:<BR>
<BR>

=============================================================<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
My question is ... has anyone had a situtation like this ?<BR>
<BR>
I have no idea why JNOS wont automatically run on bootup now.<BR>
<BR>
Suggestions are appreciated.<BR>
