Hello:

(FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE)

I am using the script below to start / stop MailScanner on my system
using Exim.  The script appears to work properly, as I can clearly see
from logs and ps -ax that the service does indeed stop and start...
however,

Whenever I try to run '/etc/init.d/MailScanner stop' (start, restart,
etc.) I get the following:

srv01# /etc/init.d/MailScanner stop
Shutting down MailScanner daemons:
         MailScanner:       /usr/home/installd/functions: line 350:
initlog: command not found
                                                           [FAILED]

particluarly, I don't know what the 'initlog: command not found' error
indicates.

(/usr/home/installd/initlog does exist)


Can anyone provide assistance to resolve this error?

Cheers,
Chris

This is the section from /usr/home/installd/functions that is causing
the error:

success() {
  if [ -z "${IN_INITLOG:-}" ]; then
     initlog $INITLOG_ARGS -n $0 -s "$1" -e 1
  else
