Hello, Wanting to know the proper way to start spamd at boot time. Currently I copied the spamd perl script from /usr/sbin into the /etc/init.d/ directory and then used chkconfig to add it to start at run levels 3 and 5. So basically the machine is just starting spamd with no options (i.e. "./spamd") Only problem is that doing it this way, for some reason, when I reboot the machine I never get to a system prompt. All I see is spamd running and then spawing child forks when it is called (I setup everything so that Postfix integrates with spamd). My entire boot.msg file is filled up with spamd junk...
So, what is the proper way to start spamd with init.d?? Is there a script I need to use that presents proper options for spamd. I was looking at the man page and I noted the "-d" switch for daemonize. Perhaps I need that :-). Thanks for your help! Rodman
