I was playing around with our mail server today when I came across a few ideas that I would like to implement on my mail server.
My mail server is currently running postfix.
The server boots to run level 3
What I found interesting when I was looking in the /etc/rc.d/rc3.d directory was that postfix as the following setup:
S80postfix -> ../init.d/postfix
Which I understand starts postfix with a priority of 80.
But where im confused is how come there is no kill for postfix? To my understanding I thought there would be a kill option as well in case the machine goes down or a reboot. Is that wrong in assuming?
Secondly, I have two other programs that I would like to start up on boot: amavisd-new and clamav. I was thinking that I could just put symlinks into the rc3.d directory and put them as the following:
S81clamav -> ../init.d/clamd S82amavisdnew -> ../init.d/amavisdnew
That should start both of those process right after postfix, right?
However, what happens when I reboot or shutdown lets say? This is where im confused?
Anyone care to fill me in?
Thanks
Jason
