tcpserver

[Mustafa Mahudhawala]

Hello,

Has anybody used tcpserver for Qmail & other services out there --

I have succesfully used qmail smtpd & popup services through tcpserver.
But there are certain additional things I would like to do ---

I am using FreeBSD 4.2 and want to start my basic services like telnetd, ftpd along with smtp & pop3 etc using tcpserver (and tcpserver.conf) instead of plain tcpserver or inetd (and inetd.conf).
I have succesfully installed tcpserver, daemontools & tcpserver-control (latest versions)

Though my tcpserver works fine with individual services I am not able to use the tcpserver,conf.
The tcpserver does not startup using tcpserver-control start.
( Though it says started telnet pop3 smtp .... )
But tcpserver-control status says none is running.
The log messages in /var/log/ tcpserver/<services>/current show

supervise : usage supervise directory.

(And of course it also Does not Allow me to Add directory to the global variable in tcpserver.conf)
I have Already corrected the tools in tcpserver.conf to point correctly e.g. setuser to setuidgid etc.

From what ever docmentation I could lay my hands on I know something about /services directory.

But I am pretty confused about the whole lot and their ineraction.
i.e. tcpserver - daemontools - tcpserver-control.
also /services & tcpserver.conf (why both)

Please Help me with this problem.
Thanx.
