Hey, newbie here with a fresh Gentoo install.
I'm setting up mullvad-vpn, using ebuild from GURU, so far so
good. I'd like to have a an init script to start the daemon,
basically like this:
`/etc/init.d/mullvad-daemon`
``` shell
#!/sbin/openrc-run
command=/usr/bin/mullvad-daemon
command_background="yes"
```
running the above script with `doas rc-service mullvad-daemon
start` results in:
`* rc-service: Permission denied` *even as root user/doas/sudo*
As I said, I'm new to openrc. I looked at
<https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Full/Working#Layout>,
am I missing something? Why would this error be produced?

Did you chmod +x /etc/init.d/mullvad-daemon? Having the wrong file
permissions can result in permission errors even when using elevated
privileges.
