10 Start the Mailman qrunner</A>
</H1>
<P>
Mailman depends on a process called the ``qrunner'' to delivery all
email messages it sees. You must start the qrunner by executing the following
command from the <var>$prefix</var> directory:
<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
% bin/mailmanctl start
</pre></div>
<P>
You probably want to start Mailman every time you reboot your system. Exactly
how to do this depends on your operating system. If your OS supports the
<b class="program">chkconfig</b> command (e.g. RedHat and Mandrake Linuxes) you can
do the following (as root, from the Mailman install directory):
<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
% cp scripts/mailman /etc/init.d/mailman
% chkconfig --add mailman
</pre></div>
<P>
Note that <span class="file">/etc/init.d</span> may be <span class="file">/etc/rc.d/init.d</span> on some systems.
<P>
On Gentoo Linux, you can do the following:
<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
% cp scripts/mailman /etc/init.d/mailman
% rc-update add mailman default
</pre></div>
<P>
On Debian, you probably want to use:
<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
% update-rc.d mailman defaults
</pre></div>
<P>
For <span class="Unix">Unix</span>es that don't support <b class="program">chkconfig</b>, you might try the
following set of commands:
<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
% cp scripts/mailman /etc/init.d/mailman
% cp misc/mailman /etc/init.d
% cd /etc/rc.d/rc0.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman K12mailman
% cd ../rc1.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman K12mailman
% cd ../rc2.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman S98mailman
% cd ../rc3.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman S98mailman
% cd ../rc4.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman S98mailman
% cd ../rc5.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman S98mailman
% cd ../rc6.d
% ln -s ../init.d/mailman K12mailman
