Re: [exim] about installing and running exim

Here is my RC start up file - I assume that you can modify this to meet
your Slackware needs. This is from a REDHAT install.


Code:
--------------------

  #!/bin/bash
  #
  # exim    This shell script takes care of starting and stopping exim
  #
  # chkconfig: 2345 80 30
  # description: Exim is a Mail Transport Agent, which is the program \
  #              that moves mail from one machine to another.
  # processname: exim
  # config: /etc/exim/exim.conf
  # pidfile: /var/run/exim.pid

# Source function library.
. /etc/init.d/functions

# Source networking configuration.
. /etc/sysconfig/network

  # Source exim configureation.
  if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/exim ] ; then
      . /etc/sysconfig/exim
  else
      DAEMON=yes
      QUEUE=1h
  fi

# Check that networking is up.
[ ${NETWORKING} = "no" ] && exit 0

[ -f /usr/sbin/exim ] || exit 0

  start() {
      # Start the DynaWall Server
  echo -n $"Starting DynaWall Server: "
      /usr/sbin/DynaWall &
      RETVAL=$?
  echo
      # check ownerships
      # do this by seeing if /var/log/exim/exim_main.log exists and is
      # owned by exim - if owned by someone else we fix it up
      if [ -f /var/log/exim/main.log ]
      then
          if [ "exim" != "`ls -l /var/log/exim/exim_main.log | awk '{print $4}'`" ]
          then
          chown -R exim:exim /var/log/exim /var/spool/exim
          fi
      fi
  # Start daemons.
  echo -n $"Starting exim: "
  daemon /usr/sbin/exim $([ "$DAEMON" = yes ] && echo -bd) \
  $([ -n "$QUEUE" ] && echo -q$QUEUE)
  RETVAL=$?
  echo
  [ $RETVAL = 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/exim
  }

  stop() {
  # Stop daemons.
  echo -n $"Shutting down exim: "
  killproc exim
      RETVAL=$?
  echo
  [ $RETVAL = 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/exim
      echo -n $"Shuting Down DynaWall Server: "
      killproc DynaWall
      RETVAL=$?
  echo
  }

  restart() {
      stop
      start
  }

  # See how we were called.
  case "$1" in
  start)
      start
      ;;
  stop)
      stop
      ;;
  restart)
      restart
      ;;
  condrestart)
      [ -f /var/lock/subsys/exim ] && restart || :
      ;;
  status)
      status exim
      ;;
  *)
      echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status|condrestart}"
      exit 1
  esac

exit $RETVAL
