Auto-Restart for Linux (Debian)

[kito2]

Hi there, well... I have been searching for some days and couldn't find any tutorial that works, so Im posting here...

Well the thing is that I have my dedi with Debian Linux and works great, but to start the OT I need to do:

cd /home/folder
./control start (a script that made a friend for me, and can kill process, stop or start it and when disconnecting from SSH, the server doesnt shutdown, but this isnt the point).

When I type screen -r it says that it will execute theforgottenserver but need to type y or n to allow or not it because it is like a "super user"...

I would like to remove that, but dont know why (it has permission 777, maybe that's why it ask to allow or not).

Since this is giving me troubles, I can't find any restarter and also an automatic starter too... Why this?
If the host reboot, then I need to log in the SSH screen and start the OT and it isn't the idea, and also if the server crashes, and I try to use a restarter, then it will ask again for the "super admin" y/n...

Can anyone help me on this?

useradd -m tfs
su tfs

./control.sh
exit


Or just stop using root (as you should!).

useradd -m tfs
su tfs

./control.sh
exit


Or just stop using root (as you should!).

Can you explain me a little what does that?
As I see, it creates a user called tfs... But the rest, doesn't understand... Then how I connect to SSH, as tfs?

Bump?

the second command runs the next command input as a different user

by default TFS should belong to root but NOT have execute permissions. there's a good reason for that. he was just polite enough not to call you out for being n00b

 

[Archez]

Create the user "TFS", log as TFS with the password you set for that account and just run the server. (not root)

"/home/tfs/serverfilesarehere"

restarter.sh

#!/bin/bash
ulimit -c unlimited
while true; do ./theforgottenserver; done
