    Default Unix daemon starts before network dependency is up

    I am trying to create a daemon that is started automatically during the boot-up. It depends on the network, local fs and remote fs services. I believe I have done everything to indicate these dependencies and I expect the daemon to be started after the network daemons are up and running. But when I look into my logs I see that my daemon S1 is consistently starting before the network daemon is available.

    The following is the init information in my S1.sh script located in /etc/init.d:
    Qt Code:
    1. #!/bin/sh
    2. ### BEGIN INIT INFO
    3. # Provides: My S1 Service
    4. # Required-Start: $local_fs $network $remote_fs
    5. # Required-Stop: $local_fs $network $remote_fs
    6. # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
    7. # Default-Stop: 0 1 6
    8. # Short-Description: start S1 Service
    9. # Description: S1 Service
    10. ### END INIT INFO

    And the following are my entries in the rc directories:

    Qt Code:
    1. rc0.d:
    2. K20S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    3.  
    4. rc1.d:
    5. K20S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    6.  
    7. rc2.d:
    8. S98S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    9.  
    10. rc3.d:
    11. S98S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    12.  
    13. rc4.d:
    14. S98S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    15.  
    16. rc5.d:
    17. S98S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    18.  
    19. rc6.d:
    20. K20S1_Service.sh -> ../init.d/S1.sh
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Is there anything more I have to do or am I doing anything wrong to make sure that my service/daemon is started after the network services/daemons are available?

    I am reading up on upstart but I really like to know whats wrong with my current scipts and daemon startup.

    This is not a QT relevant question. If you want to get answers, you may post this in a linux forum. Either linuxquestions or unix.com.
