I'm running Red Hat 6.1 and qmail 1.03. I have followed LWQ step by step.
However, I am unable to get qmail to start when the system starts. I have
done all of the rcX.d links just as LWQ specifies and I have no problem
running the "qmail  start" command from the command line. Qmail starts just
as it should. But it will not start at boot-up. There is no indication in
/var/log/messages that the system even tried to execute the startup script,
no mention of qmail what so ever. The startup script was working on the
first Linux box I installed Qmail on and now I am installing a second box
and cannot get it to work. I have spent all day comparing the configurations
of the two boxes and can find no differences. What I did try was adding
"ln -s ../init.d/qmail  /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S80qmail" . When I did this qmail
started when the system was rebooted. This is not in LWQ and I was wondering
if it might cause a problem? I'm new to Linux and unsure of the
consequences. What could I be missing? Suggestions on what I might be
causing my problem?

Thank you,
