Spamassassin and the spamd service

I am on step 5 of the NEW Spamassassin integration guide, and am stuck.

The instructions tell me to type:

Code: Select all

chkconfig --add spamd


But when I do I get this:

Code: Select all

error reading information on service spamd: No such file or directory


Did I miss a step? I am using FC4, but I don't know if that makes a difference.

Me too. Any resolution?

The chkconfig Linux command will look for a script under the name of /etc/init.d/<service>, i.e. /etc/init.d/spamd.

This normally comes when you install the spamd RPM.

Maybe you did not use the right RPM for your platform. Or it is called differently, maybe you want to check "ls -l /etc/init.d/*spam*" for a look.

Hope this helps.


Cheers,
Florian.
