Hi.,
At /etc/rc.d/init.d put a file named dovecot
############ ############ #!/bin/bash # # /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot # # Starts the dovecot daemon # # chkconfig: - 65 35 # description: Dovecot Imap Server # processname: dovecot # Source function library. . /etc/init.d/functions
test -x /usr/local/sbin/dovecot || exit 0
RETVAL=0 prog="Dovecot Imap"
start() { echo -n $"Starting $prog: " daemon /usr/local/sbin/dovecot RETVAL=$? [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/dovecot echo }
stop() { echo -n $"Stopping $prog: " killproc /usr/local/sbin/dovecot RETVAL=$? [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/dovecot echo }

exit $RETVAL
############ ############
And then "chkconfig dovecot on"
Luis.

Hi List,
I recently installed dovecot 1.0rc15 on centos, installation went fine, it installed under /usr/local/ but I cannot start the dovecot service automatically. I tried with chkconfig but it told me the dovecot service is not supported by chkconfig. Can anybody give me a tip about how to get done with this?
I will appreciate any help.
Regards,
--Ivan.
