#!/bin/sh printenv >/tmp/env.tmp /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl "$@" # pass our arguments on to apache echo apachectl exited with status $? note that there's a very slight security risk if you leave the "printenv >/tmp/env.tmp" line in-place longer than you need it. > Okay... I thought I would drop this in /usr/local/bin. Sound right? the "standard" place on a red hat box would be /etc/rc.d/init.d but small site-specific customisations like these can be dropped wherever's most convenient for you, really (if it were my box, it would probably be called /usr/local/something/or/other/init.apachectl but that's just matter of taste.) obviously you will need links to it from /etc/rc?.d/rc?.d/S??apache (instead of your existing links.) > Thanks for the help and further suggestions. did i gather from your other mail that you've cracked the problem? cheers, -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [ do NOT use the following e-mail address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
