I've got two files names "clamav-milter".

One is in /etc/sysconfig, and contains what looks like command-line
flags for startup.  My guess was that this was a config file.

The second is an executable script.  I can't even remember where it was
originally; probably in the build directory and no-where else.  Yes, I
did run make in the milter subdirectory when I downloaded the code, as
well as make install.  I copied *this* script into /etc/rc.d/init.d, and
then into /usr/sbin and /usr/local/sbin.  For reference, it starts:
!/bin/sh
#
# clamav-milter This script starts and stops the clamav-milter daemon
#
# chkconfig: 2345 91 30
#
# description: clamav-milter is a daemon which hooks into sendmail and
routes
#              email messages to clamav
# processname: clamav-milter

# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions



Since those are the only files directly named 'clamav-milter", which one
is the executable and which one the startup script?
