* Overview
This directory contains distribution-specific startup scripts for
Ping903.  All scripts assume the daemon binary is installed at
/usr/sbin/ping903.  If it's not the case, change the value of the
COMMAND variable, located at the start of the script.

* debian.rc
The start script for Debian-based systems without systemd.  Use it on
Debian 7, Ubuntu up to 16.04, etc.

1. Copy the script and make it executable:

  cp debian.rc /etc/init.d/ping903
  chmod +x /etc/init.d/ping903
  
2. Register it in the startup and shutdown sequences:

  update-rc.d ping903 defaults

Optionally, you may create the file /etc/default/903, which can
define two shell variables:

  START
       Whether or not to start the service.  Set it to "no", to
       disable the service.  Set it to "yes" (or simply remove it)
       to enable the service.
  DAEMON_OPTS
       Additional options to be passed to the server.

* ping903.service
Service definition for systems with systemd.  Usage:

1. Copy
  cp ping903.service /etc/systemd/system/

2. Enable it
  systemctl enable ping903

3. Reload the daemon
  systemctl daemon-reload

4. Start the service
  systemctl start ping903

* slackware.rc
Slackware rc script.  In fact, it is the most general of all and it
will work an all systems with no (or at a pinch, little) changes.
Usage:

1. Copy it to where startup scripts live and make it executable.
  cp slackware.rc /etc/rc.d/rc.pound903
  chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.pound903

2. Add the following line to your /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
  /etc/rc.d/rc.pound903 start

* genrc.rc
Startup script for installations using genrc
(https://puszcza.gnu.org.ua/projects/genrc).  This is mostly for
Slackware, but can actually be used on any system.  The usage on
Slackware is the same as described for slackware.rc.
