    My usecase - need guidance

    Hello,

    I need some help with my usecase.
    I made a player which is working well (at start it connects to LMS and play, so it's ok).
    Now I would like to achieve this :
    - my player is designed to be mobile so at boot it should check if it is on a specific wifi network (home). If it is at home, then it should start as a player connected to home LMS.
    - if it can't find home network, it should connect to whatever network it knows and launch a player and LMS server in order to be autonomous.

    What I did so far :
    - managed multiple SSID (I had issue with wpa_passphrase and priority but that's not my priority). So my player can connect to multiple wifi networks.
    - wrote a script that checks if it is connected on a specific network (my home) and if the LMS server is running.
    - connect to this LMS in case it find it.

    I would appreciate help for the part where I need to launch a LMS server....

    I had a look to pcp_startup.sh but didn't find a way to achieve my goal due to poor bash knowledge (part called "Start LMS")

    If anyone can help me, I would be grateful.

      Solved.

      sudo -u tc tce-load -i slimserver
      sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/slimserver start


      did the job.
      I don't know why but priority and passphrase are also working.
      So everything is solved !

      may be sudo -u tc is senseless.....

        tce-load must run with non-root rights. So if your main script is running with root permissions, then you script is correct.

          So it's ok. My script is launched by one of the three "user command". I have read that they are run with root.
