If you want to start "mimedefang" with the "-t" flag then you better put "-t" in the command that starts "mimedefang" rather than in the command that starts "mimedefang-multiplexor". But normally you don't need to modify the /etc/rc.d/init.d/mimedefang script. The startup script reads a configuration file and will start the daemons depending on the contents of that configuration file. File names and locations of startup scripts and config files might vary among OS-es/distributions/versions. On a Debian Linux Squeeze system the config file is located in /etc/default/mimedefang. In that file I have: # "yes" turns on the multiplexor recipient checking function # MX_RECIPIENT_CHECK=no MX_RECIPIENT_CHECK=yes Regards, Kees Theunissen. -- Kees Theunissen, System and network manager, Tel: +31 (0)30 6096724 Dutch Institute For Fundamental Energy Research (DIFFER) e-mail address: c.j.theunis...@differ.nl postal address: PO Box 1207, 3430 BE Nieuwegein, NL visitors address: Edisonbaan 14, 3439 MN Nieuwegein, NL _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
