I haven't been closely following the list recently, so I don't know why
your messages have been missed. But here's how I start up tmda-ofmipd:
1. I created a user ID "tofmipd".
2. I installed TMDA for that user ID.
3. I made sure that the ~tofmipd/.tmda/config file contains this line:
ALLOW_MODE_640 = 1
4. I installed the "sudo" program.
5. I wrote the attached Perl script.
6. I cause the Perl script to run with the argument "start"
in order to start tmda-ofmipd, and with the argument "stop"
to terminate it.
I couldn't get this to work with "su" ... it had to be "sudo" on my
system.
I don't recall why I wrote it in Perl. I don't know if I had to do that
in order to make up for some deficiency in /bin/{ba,c,k,z,}sh, or if I
just wanted to use Perl for the hell of it. But this works for me.
You'll probably have to tweak the path names in the Perl script.
Good luck!
