Hi Folks,  

I'd like to use  "start-stop-daemon" on my centos-machine.
I know , it's debian-like.
But I can't find "startproc" on my machine nor in the repos.

What is the CentOS-replacement for "start-stop-daemon"?

Thx

Timothy

P.S. I found a  start-stop-daemon.c  script - but how to compile it?

	gcc start-stop-daemon.c  

ends in much errors.
