Changing Number of Pop3 Daemons

[bclancey]

I have tried to reduce the number of vm-pop3d daemons running by changing a line in rc.d/init.d/vm-pop3d from

daemon vm-pop3d -d 10 -t 120

to

daemon vm-pop3d -d 4 -t 120

My reading of other posts is this should decrease the number of instances from 10 to four. But, running the ps command shows there are still 10.

Is there another place where this needs to be done?

I solved my problem. In order to change the number of daemons running I needed to make sure there was no space between the -d option and the number in /etc/rc.d/init.d/vm-pop3d

-d 4 does not work
-d4 works
