Hello,

Trying to figure out how to get dovecot to startup at boot. I saw the Ubuntu script on the dovecot site, but that didn't work on my system (SuSe 10.2). Of course, copying the /usr/local/sbin/dovecot file into /etc/init.d doesn't work at all. Any one have working SuSe script??

I don't have a SuSE script, but I use something like this on Solaris just adjust CFG and BIN to fit your needs

----begin----

#!/bin/sh

Dovecot Secure IMAP/pop server

please configure to fit your needs here

CFG=/etc/dovecot.conf BIN=/usr/local/sbin/dovecot PROC=dovecot

configuration ends

if [ ! -f $CFG ]; then exit 0; fi

case $1 in

'start') $BIN -c $CFG ;; 'stop') pkill -KILL $PROC ;; 'restart') pkill -KILL $PROC sleep 2 $BIN -c $CFG ;; *) echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}" ;; esac

----end----

Rodman

why not using the suse rpms init included

http://repos.opensuse.org/server:/mail/openSUSE_10.2/

chooese your arch and then download dovecot

example

http://repos.opensuse.org/server:/mail/openSUSE_10.2/x86_64/dovecot-1.0.rc28...

after all a dovecot rpm comes with suse 10.2 included, you can user yast to install it
