Should not the proftpd package install a start script in /etc/rc.d?

Thanks,

Darren

I'll handle it tonight when I get off of work.

Being new to gentoo (two days maybe :), I would suggest having the start
script anyway.  Every other distribution I have seen usually starts it
with inetd, but has the script in case you want to make is standalone.
If I recall correctly, the proftpd binary will actually intelligently
fail to start from the startup script if proftpd.conf lists it as inetd.

My 2 cents.

Darren

Okay, just looked at this during my lunch break.  Realized that the
reason there is no proftpd init.d script is b/c by default proftpd
starts up from inetd.conf.

I could change the default configuration or you can create your own
startup script.  Dan, what's your take?

Okay, but later tonight.  Right now I need to finish wrestling with this
damn tape library.
