Restart services from the cli?

[irishjd]

Hello All,

I am working on a user script, and I need to be able to restart a service (snmpd) from within the script. I have tried the usual commands "service" and "systemctl", but neither work in Unraid.

 

Thanks,

Jon

I was just wondering about this myself.

Turns out that in Slackware the services are controlled using their 'run command' scripts under /etc/rc.d/ (nostalgia intensifies!).

 

This should do the trick for snmpd, assuming it's installed -

 

/etc/rc.d/rc.snmpd restart

 

I appreciate this is an old post but thought I'd respond anyway as it may save someone else a little time in the future.

 

Regards,

Dave.
