Hello everyone, I'm currently trying to install BackupPC on the QNAP  
TS-509 Pro NAS system. So far I managed to get through the  
installation and I can start the server by calling the executable as  
user "backuppc": /path/to/installation/bin/BackupPC

This call results in the PID printed on the command line and I can  
communicate with the server as described in the documentation  
(Installing BackupPC, Step 7: Talking to BackupPC). I'd like to set up  
the init.d script, but none of the scripts generated during the  
installation worked. I guess the linux distribution used on the QNAP  
NAS is too different from Debian, Suse, RedHat and the like. I *could*  
start digging into System V, but maybe someone here has a working  
solution already?

Also, I'd like to know if there's a way to start BackupPC in daemon  
mode? Maybe I missed that section in the docs, but judging from the  
generated init.d scripts it seems as if it relies on some system calls  
to start in daemon mode.
