[17:59] <agussman> In this post http://tinyurl.com/n3l9jz they reference an ALestic start up script that's used to fetch user data from Amazon.  Anyone know which startup script does that?
[18:01] <rick_h_> agussman: I've seen some references to it like here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ec2/2009-April/001020.html
[18:02] <rick_h_> I've not tested it, but seems there's something added to the default image init.d to pull it
[18:02] <rick_h_> I tend to just scp a .sh script after the instance is up
[18:04] <agussman> rick_h_:thanks for the info, i'll check it oout
[18:07] <erichammond> agussman: http://ec2-run-user-data.notlong.com
[18:07] <erichammond> agussman: This is the startup script used to run the user-data in the images on http://alestic.com
[18:07] <erichammond> http://alestic-user-data.notlong.com/
[18:08] <erichammond> And that is an article which describes its use.
[18:14] <agussman> erichammond: thanks for the info!  Where does the ec2-run-user-data on the image?
[18:15] <erichammond> agussman: /etc/init.d/ with appropriate links from /etc/rc?.d/
[18:15] <erichammond> The Ubuntu images built by Canonical have a similar startup script.
[18:16] <agussman> Hmm... I'm not seeing it in /etc/init.d.  Is it called ec2-run-user-data?
[18:17] <erichammond> What AMI id are you running?
[18:18] <agussman> It was an AMI that I downloaded and am running locally as a Xen filesystem image
[18:18] <agussman> well, not running locally, I'm running it under Nimbus, but I don't think that matters
[18:19] <agussman> It's based off of the Aug3rd or Aug4th AMI for 9.04, 32bit
[18:23] <erichammond> If you're using an AMI built by Canonical, the startup scripts were completely rewritten and have different names and locations.
[18:23] <erichammond> Start in /etc/init.d/ec2-init
[18:27] <agussman> erichammond: Thanks, I found it.  It was where you said it was originally, I didn't realize I was logged into the wrong machine :/
