<p>Imported from Wayback via edit</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Rivendell has several daemons that run in the background helping things work. <br /> <br /> The daemons can either be started during system boot up, via the /etc/&#039;&#039;&#039;init.d&#039;&#039;&#039; script, or they can be started as needed by the Rivendell programs using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluggable_Authentication_Modules PAM]. In the latter case, where the daemons are started as needed, the &#039;&#039;&#039;pam_rd&#039;&#039;&#039; PAM module can be used to ensure any old instances of the daemons are cleared out when a user logs in.<br /> <br /> The order the daemons start is important, as they depend on one another. Here they are listed with the top most items started first:<br /> <br /> * 1) &#039;&#039;&#039;jackd&#039;&#039;&#039; [&#039;&#039;&#039;optional&#039;&#039;&#039;] (the jack audio connection kit daemon which allows for routing of audio from one application to another, only used if using the jack audio subsystem)<br /> * 2) &#039;&#039;&#039;caed&#039;&#039;&#039; (the core audio engine daemon, which reads the audio files and plays them to the sound card)<br /> * 3) &#039;&#039;&#039;ripcd&#039;&#039;&#039; (the rivendell interprocess communication daemon)<br /> * 4) &#039;&#039;&#039;rdcatchd&#039;&#039;&#039; (a daemon to run batch jobs capturing and sending out audio)<br /> * And then finall the Rivendell Applications can start (ex: rdairplay, rdlibrary)<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Image:Rivendell_daemons.jpg]]<br /> </div>
