You're missing a / here.  /var/qmail/rc.  That may be one reason.

I thought Dan said to use csh here?  If you have csh, try it.  bash,
especially in restricted shell mode, just may act like old Bourne sh,
and the child may get killed as soon as the parent dies.  But I don't
know enough about bash to know for sure.

} yet when I restart I have no mail capabilities (i.e. qmail isn't working
} and sendmail is disabled).  My startup script (qmail) is in /var/qmail.

} million things, but what do i go now???  troubleshooting...
