+====== Autostart after Linux reboot ======
+===== Problem description =====
+If you operate a Linux server, some services must always be available. When the server restarts, certain programmes should start directly. A simple cronjob is sufficient for this.
+===== Problem solution =====
+Log on as the user under which the programme is running and open the cronjob list:
+<code bash>$> crontab -e</code>
+The following command must now be entered as a cronjob:
+<code bash>
+# m h  dom mon dow   command
+@reboot cd /home/user/programdir; ./program start
+</code>
+As a practical example, the automatic start of an IRCD with services:
+<code bash>
+# m h  dom mon dow   command
+@reboot cd /home/psycore/Unreal3.2; ./unreal start
+@reboot cd /home/psycore/services; ./services
+</code>
