How to auto start chat server when starting your server?

It can be done following the steps below:

Step 1:
Modify “fcserver.sh�, find the FCSERVER_HOME section, and configure the directory of “fcserver.sh�.
For example, if you uncompress the 123flashchatserver.tar.gz into /usr/local/123flashchat, make sure “fcserver.sh� is in the directory of /usr/local/123flashchat, then remove the “#� before the two rows below in “fcserver.sh�:
FCSERVER_HOME=/usr/local/123flashchat/server
export FCSERVER_HOME

Step 2:
Modify /etc/rc.local file, add one row:
/usr/local/123flashchat/server/fserver.sh
Just replace “/usr/local/123flashchat/ “ with your FCSERVER_HOME value.
