Well, if you did indeed put the startup scripts in the right place you
would want to do this:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail start
(at least on redhat systems)

Which would make sense if you were in /usr/local/src/qmail or
whatever since the startup scripts don't live there.

Well, it looks like you got daemontool 6 where setuser was replaced
with setguid and other oddities. I got bitten by that as well. As
has been mentioned a couple of times, most of the HOWTOs haven't
caught up to the newest daemontools.
You might want to consult the nifty Life with Qmail and see if that
helps out any:
