—————————————————————————————————–

if  http://linuxstuffs.net/red5 doesn’t work, please use the following method.

cd /etc/init.d/
touch red5
chmod 755 red5
vi red5

----------------------------------------------------------


RED5_DIR=/opt/red5
test -x $RED5_DIR/red5.sh || exit 5

case "$1" in
    start)
        echo -n "Starting Red5 Service"
        echo -n " "
        cd $RED5_DIR
        su -s /bin/bash -c "$RED5_DIR/red5.sh &" red5
        sleep 2
        ;;
    stop)
        echo -n "Shutting down red5"
        echo -n " "
        su -s /bin/bash -c "killall -q -u red5 java" red5
        sleep 2
        ;;
    restart)
        $0 stop
        $0 start
        ;;
esac
----------------------------------------------------------

Then you can simply start, stop, and restart red5 from that script by typing:

/etc/init.d/red5 start


/etc/init.d/red5 stop
/etc/init.d/red5 restart
