Hi there.

I want to know if anyone has any "best practice" advice on this. I'm
wanting to make sure the slon process is run whenever I start the
server. Of course I'm preferring an standard init.d script, but I'd
like it to use slon_start instead of just slon.

I've compiled from sources so it didn't installed an init script
automatically. I've seen the included redhat/postgresql-slony1.init in
the source tree, but it relies directly on slon and I want to use
slon_start.

The best init-script I've seen so far is the one included with ubuntu
(don't know if it's the same in debian) because it handles both
alternatives. But I'd have to "translate" it to redhat style in case I
want to use that.

Anybody made its own start script or has a better way to do it?
