[root@smtp01 bin]# ln -s /usr/exim/bin/exim /etc/init.d/exim
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. The init script is an init
script, not a symlink to the binary file.
I've never known the real way, what I do is to copy one of the more
simple init.d scripts (ie: cp /etc/init.d/xinetd /etc/init.d/exim) and
modify that file. Alternatively there are quite a few init scripts
available on the net if you google it.
Bear in mind you can't start Exim as a daemon just with running the
binary, you`ll need "-bd -q1h" or similar.
Cheers,
Chris

Subject: [Exim] chkconfig on RH
I am trying to add an entry into chkconfig (/etc/init.d) on a Redhat AS3
box. Would someone like to tell me what I am doing wrong. If I cannot
use RH native utilities what do I use?
[root@smtp01 bin]# ln -s /usr/exim/bin/exim /etc/init.d/exim
[root@smtp01 bin]# chkconfig --add exim
service exim does not support chkconfig
[root@smtp01 bin]# ln -s /usr/exim/bin/exim /etc/init.d/sendmail
[root@smtp01 bin]# chkconfig --add sendmail service sendmail does not
support chkconfig
[root@smtp01 bin]#
Thanks.
roger
