hi...my project requires me to open the initscript of any server or daemon like xinetd and understand all the init tags etc and the coding that i have no idea about....any suggestions on how to proceed???
Pick up a book on Shell programming to help understand the syntax, and pick up an OReilly book, Essential System Administration to understand the boot sequence. Get to reading as soon as possible. Post questions here for the steps that you do not understand. The more you do on your own the more you will benefit.
whats your project entail? is this your own project, or assigned to you by your teacher?
