Miredo is run as a server from the command line:
/usr/sbin/miredo
The man page says the signal SIGTERM stops the server.
How do I send SIGTERM to the server? Or SIGHUP, as I want to make a change to the config file.
And once I get this as I want it, how do I run it at system boot?
You will have to make a sys V init script for it. You can probably use an existing script and edit it to suit your program, or there is example in /usr/share/doc/initscripts-xxxxxx directory that you should be able to hack at. That will also help you to get lock files and pid files going for it if you need them.
Thanks. Something else to learn. I have been trying to document all that I have been using (skipping what I have discarded, as I don't know if I know it).
It has pid files: /var/run/miredo.pid
How would I get lock files?
The other choice is to add a line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local, but that won't give you control with the system command.
I MUST include this in my docs. I keep forgetting the file name. This will probably be good enough, as once I get it working, it will be an auto start. And less effort than the first point.
