MailScanner: Beta release 4.49.1 -- process name feature

[Martin Hepworth]

'ps' mod Works on FreeBSD....

# ps -auxww | grep MailScanner
<uname>   572  0.0  1.0 15660 15184  ??  Ss    9:17AM   0:00.01 MailScanner:
killing children, bwahaha! (perl)


ROFL....


Anyway I note my rc start script now complains in a egrep error.... seems to
do the job though.....

case "$1" in
start)
        [ -x /opt/MailScanner/bin/check_mailscanner ] &&\\ 
/opt/MailScanner/bin/check_mailscanner > /dev/null && \\ 
echo -n ' MailScanner'
;;

Gives 

egrep: Unmatched ( or \(

I guess this is line 93 in check_mailscanner that's the problem, with the
'(' just before the '$msbinddir

but carries on anyway...so that's a prob a side effect of the (perl) at the
end of the ps output.

can't comment on the Postfix mod as I don't run PF.
