|
|
>One of the greatest obstacles beginners may face is that INN requires a
|
|
working network setup to function properly, even when running on a standalone
|
|
host. Therefore, it is essential that your kernel supports TCP/IP networking
|
|
when running INN, and that you have set up the loopback interface as
|
|
explained in <A
|
|
HREF="x-087-2-iface.html"
|
|
>Chapter 5</A
|
|
>.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>Next, you have to make sure that <B
|
|
CLASS="COMMAND"
|
|
>innd</B
|
|
> is started at
|
|
boot time. The default INN installation provides a script file called
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|
|
>boot</TT
|
|
> in the <TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|
|
>/etc/news/</TT
|
|
>
|
|
directory. If your distribution uses the SystemV-style
|
|
<B
|
|
CLASS="COMMAND"
|
|
>init</B
|
|
> package, all you have to do is create a
|
|
symbolic link from your <TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|
|
>/etc/init.d/inn</TT
|
|
> file
|
|
pointing to <TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|
|
>/etc/news/boot</TT
|
|
>. For other flavors of
|
|
<B
|
|
CLASS="COMMAND"
|
|
>init</B
|
|
>, you have to make sure
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|
|
>/etc/news/boot</TT
|
|
> is executed from one of your
|
|
<TT
|
|
CLASS="FILENAME"
|
|
>rc</TT
|
|
> scripts. Since INN requires networking
|
|
support, the startup script should be run <I
|
|
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
|
|
>after</I
|
|
>
|
|
the network interfaces are configured.</P
