I'm just a little concerned that some other OS out there doesn't use /var/run/spamd.pid but instead wants /usr/share/pids/spamd or c:\windows\makingthisup\pids\spamd instead. If you get your shell to do it (using $! or something), then you get to tune things to how they're done on your own particular platform.
Not saying it's better one way or the other -- just if you use $! I don't have to do any work :) C Duncan Findlay wrote: > Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2002 19:09:04 -0500 > From: Duncan Findlay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Re: [SAtalk] BSD rc.d script and HTML spam > > On Wed, Feb 27, 2002 at 03:49:38PM -0800, Craig R Hughes wrote: > > Stick it in bugzilla and I'll get to it sometime.
