/var/qmail/rc -- no such animal....:(
We use the following to start qmail from our startup script:
======
echo Starting Qmail
nice -20 env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" qmail-start
./Mailbox
splogger qmail &
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -u 91 -g 151 0 smtp
/usr/local/bin/tcp
control /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd >/dev/null 2>&1 &
;;
======
Also I tried the ./inst check and got the following error:
ella 31# ./instcheck
instcheck: fatal: instcheck: usage: instcheck dir
Which dir should I tell it to check (and what does this program do?)
Thanks, Samuel
