Hello.
I use the [EMAIL PROTECTED] client on a machine which runs mostly
unattended so it would be a hassle to start it manually after each
boot. Therefor I went ahead and created a rc.d script for it. It is
attached to this mail. I thought it could be useful enough to be
included in the port.
You can set a user under which the program will run and a directory
where it will be run and store its files. These are currently set to
user: root and working dir: /usr/local/share/foldingathome which is
like running /usr/local/bin/FoldingAtHome as root.
Feel free to contact me for any questions/corrections, I'd be happy to
hear any constructive criticism because this is my first rc.d script.
Feel also free to use this script in any way you see fit.
Regards,
Tobias
