How do you start ffserver when the server starts up?

I have ffmpeg's ffserver installed on Ubuntu but want to start it as a daemon feeding it a config file when the server boots, how do I go about doing so?

Solution

  • You can use update-rc.d command to do the same

    sudo update-rc.d ffserver defaults

    Check the man pages of update-rc.d for more details
