You are running a command that was designed for sh(1) or compatible shells in csh(1). The guide you are reading assumes that your shell is a Bourne shell, but in BSD the default shell of the root user is /bin/csh. Try saving the command unchanged in a file, and run it as an sh(1) script: fail# cat rc-smtpd.sh /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -R -x/var/qmail/control/relays.cdb \ -u5001 -g5000 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 | \ /var/qmail/bin/splogger & Then run the script you have written with sh(1): fail# sh rc-smtpd.sh That should make it work as expected... > (note: my email client is most likely wrapping that command to > another line but, it was entered as one) It didn't wrap anything. Which is arguably worse, some times, but that's another topic :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
