Auto dir creation on start up? - mborkp - 7th Mar, 2016 06:03 PM
Hi,
for my openvpn to run I need below commands to be executed on start-up:
mkdir /dev/net
mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
chmod 0666 /dev/net/tun
Can I set that up in rc.local and how please?
Thanks

Yes you can
Just add the three lines to the end of /etc/rc.local
Code:
sudo nano /etc/rc.localRE: Auto dir creation on start up? - mborkp - 8th Mar, 2016 06:39 AM
So the file should look like this?
sudo nano /etc/rc.local mkdir /dev/net
sudo nano /etc/rc.local mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
sudo nano /etc/rc.local chmod 0666 /dev/net/tun
exit 0
Thanks.
EDIT: ahhhh nano is an editor, got it, thanks

Hi,
Edited file looks like this now:
/etc/rc.local mkdir /dev/net
/etc/rc.local mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
/etc/rc.local chmod 0666 /dev/net/tun
exit 0
Strange, I can't see the file in /etc in terminal but, the sudo nano /etc/rc.local edits it... im logged as root. Is there any reason for that?
Thank you.
EDIT: damn, it is too early here, of course it looks like this:
mkdir /dev/net
mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200
chmod 0666 /dev/net/tun
exit 0:
