Hi, I have the following in my /etc/rc.local file, /usr/local/bin/tcpserver 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mydomain.com \ /usr/local/bin/checkvpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir & /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -u 1006 -g 1006 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \ 2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 & It seems that one of the above process or rather maybe both does not execute as a background processes upon loading at bootup. Instead they stay on the console, thus preventing the Login: prompt from being displayed. I will appreciate it very much if someone can enlighten me on how to modify the commands above so that they will stay as background executing processes. Please kindly CC: a copy of your reply to my e-mail address as I am not on the mailing list. Thank you.
