Install init.d script for CopyConsole in Debian-like distros

Installation of CopyConsole

First of all you need to install CopyConsole, that may be done with this simple script, that must be run with superuser privileges (we need CopyConsole to be installed in a system directory, to make it available to all system users):

Warning! You must define if 32bit or 64bit version in VERSION var!

#!/bin/bash

VERSION=x86_64  # Select this for 64bit version
#VERSION=x86    # Select this for 32bit version

if [ $UID -eq 0 ]; then
  cd /usr/local
  wget https://copy.com/install/linux/Copy.tgz -O copy.tgz --no-check-certificate
  tar xfvz copy.tgz
  ln -s copy/$VERSION/CopyConsole /usr/bin/CopyConsole
else
  echo "Run this script as superuser. Installation Failed"
fi

User validation for CopyConsole

(Taken from: https://coderwall.com/p/rwxnma thank's to Marcelo Waisman)

The user must be validated the first time. To do that, this command must be inserted by the user

CopyConsole -u=USER_COPY_MAIL -r=$HOME/USER_COPY_DIR -p=USER_COPY_PASSWORD

When CopyCoonsole replies with press enter to exit user may exit, and we are ready to use the init script.

init.d script installation

First of all, you need to create the script in which it is saved the script. This could be done easily with a single line command:

sudo wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/MatteoRagni/9271828/raw/ffb03b431671185080feb086627c29a3fff4f774/.etc.init.d.CopyConsole --no-check-certificate -O /etc/init.d/CopyConsole && sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/CopyConsole

After that, you need to configure the script. If You have used previous instructions, you have only to insert users in the users list. Users shall be separated by a space, and you may insert as many user as you want.

The last step is to enable the init script:

sudo update-rc.d CopyConsole defaults

and it's done!

I think you have a typo in the last command, it should be 'update-rc.d' instead of 'update-rd.d'

Nice work, thanks for sharing.

You're right! thank's!

I've made some changes in my fork to make it work for me on an Orange Pi: https://gist.github.com/matozoid/3a5ce92dfde9782384a1

And it is much better. I've put your link in the first lines of the README.md to make people find it easily.
