Hello!
I've been trying to start qmail using a hacked version of the
/etc/init.d/httpd script but the script - /etc/init.d/smtp - just hangs
after echo'ing the message "Starting qmail: ". (`csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc'`
works correctly.) I'm not familiar with shell scripting - could the error be
caused because /var/qmail/rc doesn't return a value to `RETVAL=$?` ?
(/etc/init.d/smtp stop works just great!)
Thanks in advance!
