I'm trying to run fetchmail as a daemon on fedora core 3.

I tried 

6.2.5
6.2.0-6

built with the usual vanilla configure;make;make install

but can get no joy.  The only way I can get
it to work is by using crontab with a script
that kills any existing daemon then runs one
with "-d 0" (which sometimes terminates and
sometimes doesn't - hence the kill).

I can't find anything sensible on the web on this.
Is there a version that works with FC3 ?  It seems
overkill to use cron.

Harry
