Brendan,

Thanks for the help, but I still can't get it cranked up...
Some relevant bits:
ls -a /var/log #=> -rw-rw-r-- 1 root   jschairb    8352 2007-05-18 23:33
rv.log

Obviously, I'm jschairb... but I'm calling the script like this:  sudo
/etc/init.d/rv start
I've tried having root be the group as well.

Thanks,
Josh

`su -c` executes the bit you have inside the quotations as a different
user; everything else (including the redirection you're using to rv.log)
gets executed as your regular user. So, /var/log/rv.log needs to be
writeable
by whatever user is running that command.
