hello,
Lacking any other guidance, I'm using the following minimal sysv
script to start and stop dovecot. If anyone would like to comment on
or improve it, I'd be most grateful.
thanks,
will
#!/bin/sh
#
# System V init script for dovecot imap server
# bodged together by will 12.2.06
PIDFILE="/var/run/dovecot/master.pid"
LONGNAME="dovecot imap server"
NAME="dovecot"
DOVECOT='/usr/local/sbin/dovecot'
case $1 in
start)
echo -n "Starting $LONGNAME";
dovecot
echo "...done";
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping $LONGNAME"
PID=`cat $PIDFILE`
kill $PID
echo "...done";
;;
*)
N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
echo "Usage: $N {start|stop}" >&2
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
