SIMP for Linux

I've used SimpLite (www.secway.co) for MSN encryption for conversations.
Since I'm running Ubuntu now, I found that Secway also has a Linux
version. http://www.secway.fr/us/products/simpserver/

Simply download, extract to /usr/local/simp and start it up. By
default, it starts a local socks-4 proxy for MSN on port 11863, so you
have to configure GAIM to use that port.

Unlike the Windows client, the server version of SIMP must automatically
create keys for you because I didn't have to do anything.

I created an init.d script as follows to auto start/stop it:

#! /bin/sh

SIMPSERVER=/usr/local/simp/bin 
/simpserver
PIDFILE=/tmp/simp.pid

set -e

case "$1" in
 start)
       if [ -e $PIDFILE ]; then
               echo $PIDFILE already exists, not starting server.
               exit 1
       fi
       nohup $SIMPSERVER >/dev/null 2>&1 &
       echo $! > $PIDFILE
       ;;
 stop)
       kill -TERM $(cat $PIDFILE)
       rm $PIDFILE
       ;;
 reload|restart|force-reload)
       echo $1 not implemented.  just kill and restart it yourself.
       ;;
 *)
       echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|force-reload}" >&2
       exit 1
       ;;
esac

exit 0
