is there a way to auto start ssh, monkey webserver, and the ftp program when i start my DSL computer?

Does booting with the command:

dsl ssh monkey ftp

at the boot prompt work?

If you have a hd-install, you will need to add these words to your append statement in your /etc/lilo.conf and rerun lilo to activate the changes.

also, for a truly hands-free frugal install, poorman's install,
or a liveCD with a saved backup file,
try adding these lines to your bootlocal.sh file for some autostart action.

---snip----

# for autostarting ssh
/etc/init.d/ssh start

# for autostarting the monkey webserver
/opt/monkey/bin/banana start

# for autostarting the betaftp daemon
/usr/sbin/betaftpd

This works well for USBpendrive users too..
