Well i thoght that doing that stuff in /etc/init.d would do it autimatically.... now i dont understand that are the script for...
So you mean i should kill or turn off xringd before using pon?? well if i do that xringd will be turned off and it will not execute pon.....
So then i should do something like this. Xringd shuold not execute pon, i could execute a script that could be somthing like:
xringd stop
pon
If so now how could i say xringd to restart after doing a poff ?? (i am not at home at this moment...)
What am i doing wrong?? xringd doesnt want to work !!
Thanks,
