Quanto serve un qualcosa che parta alla fine dello startup del sistema operativo!!
Ma con Ubuntu 16.10 (e forse anche prima) con il passaggio a Sytemd è stato tolto l’utile rc.local; per riabilitarlo bisogna eseguire i seguenti passi:
Dopo aver verificato che il servizio non è effettivamente attivo
sudo systemctl status rc-local
● rc-local.service - /etc/rc.local Compatibility
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service; static; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2015-11-26 23:54:58 CST; 59s ago
Process: 1001 ExecStart=/etc/rc.local start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

Nov 26 23:54:58 vivid systemd[1]: rc-local.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
Nov 26 23:54:58 vivid systemd[1]: Failed to start /etc/rc.local Compatibility.
Nov 26 23:54:58 vivid systemd[1]: Unit rc-local.service entered failed state.
Nov 26 23:54:58 vivid systemd[1]: rc-local.service failed.
sudo systemctl enable rc-local
The unit files have no [Install] section. They are not meant to be enabled
using systemctl.
Possible reasons for having this kind of units are:
1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's
.wants/ or .requires/ directory.
2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has
a requirement dependency on it.
3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer,
D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...).
bisogna abilitarlo editando il file
sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service
e modificarlo affinchè sia uguale a quello qui sotto:
[Unit]
Description=/etc/rc.local Compatibility
ConditionPathExists=/etc/rc.local
[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/etc/rc.local start
TimeoutSec=0
StandardOutput=tty
RemainAfterExit=yes
SysVStartPriority=99
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
A questo punto abilitiamo l’esecuzione del file rc.local
sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.local
ed abilitiamo il servizio
sudo systemctl enable rc-local
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/rc-local.service to /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service.
Controlliamo che tutto sia a posto
sudo systemctl start rc-local.service
sudo systemctl status rc-local.service
● rc-local.service - /etc/rc.local Compatibility
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: active (running) since Fri 2015-11-27 00:32:56 CST; 14min ago
Process: 879 ExecStart=/etc/rc.local start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
Main PID: 880 (watch)
CGroup: /system.slice/rc-local.service
Fatto !
(è possibile usare anche il crontab con la keyword @reboot … )
