Hi Joseph.

It seems as if you are trying to put the cluster on port 23 according to 
the log, and if you dont have root rights you cannot occupy any ports 
below 1024.

Seems your auto-start entry is also trying as user "sysop" with 
insufficient rights.

Try to use another port, for example 8000 wich is standard. It might also 
work with port 23 if using suidperl or something else, but I wouldn't 
recommend it. If you really want it on port 23, I think I would run it on 
some other port and then simply setup a forward from port 23 thru inetd or 
iptables.

When I try to auto start Cluster as sysop...  I can start it as root... but I still can't get it to auto start...  My inittab entry is:


##Start DXSpider on bootup and respawn it should it crash
DX:3:respawn:/bin/su -c "/usr/bin/perl -w /spider/perl/cluster.pl" sysop >/dev/$

Any help would be wonderful... Below is what happens when I try to start it as sysop...
