I had a clean install of DA on a debian box, but the after running
Code:
apt-get -f install
it removed exim.

I reinstalled exim4 using apt-get install exim4, but then realised that DA should probably manage exim, so ran apt-get --purge remove exim4.

I then compiled exim from source:
http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=125
And then updated the exim.conf file.
http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=51

However, when I try to start exim now, it complains:
Code:
server:~# /etc/init.d/exim restart
-bash: /etc/init.d/exim: No such file or directory

/etc/init.d/exim does not exist, but /etc/init.d/exim4 does exist.

Should compiling exim from source (link above) rebuild the init script?
If not, where can I get the /etc/init.d/exim from?

Should I be comping from source, or would it be better to use the custombuild script?
 
Code:
wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/debian_4.0/da_exim-4.69.deb
dpkg -i da_exim-4.69.deb
