Hi,
Let me cite the service file here:
[Unit] Description=/etc/rc.d/rc.local Compatibility ConditionFileIsExecutable=/etc/rc.d/rc.local After=network.target
[Service] Type=forking ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/rc.local start TimeoutSec=0 RemainAfterExit=yes
I basically don't understand two things here:
1. What makes it run? Sure, when I make /etc/rc.d/rc.local executable, it runs. But for all I know, for it to run some other service must pull in it as a dependency. Am I wrong?
2. Why Type=forking?
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Yuri
