I'm using different scripts to configure different things and after these scripts I'm forced to reboot in order to use the new parameters
It's quite uncommon that you have to reboot for that. Especially going by your quote "many".
Kai
by "many" I mean 5-6 scripts
Do these need to run as root? And do they really need to wait for a user to log in or can they write their output to a file to be viewed later? You can put a line in /etc/rc.d/rc.local to run your script which you can change each time as you want. And you can add >>/path/to/logfile on the command if you want it to be saved. If you want something to run as the user at login, it can go in .profile or .bash_profile in the user's home directory.
I use .bash_profile and it works great
for now i want to display the computer IP adress just before the user login
my command is : ifconfig | grep "inet addr" | awk '{print $2}' | sed s/addr:// | head -n 1 and it works after logon but I want to display it before the user logon do you know how to do this ?
