Hello Alex,
Here is what I use under Solaris. Create a new file named
/etc/init.d/exim with the following...
-----
#!/bin/sh
#
# Startup for exim
#
umask 022
PIDFILE="/var/spool/exim/exim-daemon.pid"
# Run as daemon on 25/tcp [YES/NO]
RUNDAEMON="YES"
case "$1" in
'start')
if [ "X${RUNDAEMON}" = "XYES" ] ; then
echo "exim starting."
/usr/local/bin/exim -bd -q15m 1>/dev/console 2>&1 &
else
echo "exim NOT started, adjust RUNDAEMON if desired."
fi
;;
'stop')
PID=`cat $PIDFILE`
if [ ! -z "$PID" ] ; then
echo "killing exim..."
/usr/bin/kill -9 ${PID} 1>/dev/null 2>&1
fi
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop }"
;;
esac
exit 0
-----
Then do something like:
chmod 744 /etc/init.d/exim
ln -s /etc/init.d/exim /etc/rc3.d/S99exim
/etc/rc3.d/S99exim start
/etc/rc3.d/S99exim stop
Probably not the best solution, but it works for me.
If anyone has any suggestions for improvement, they
would be much appreciated.
