Lon, I use original's postfix script and returns this if postfix is up: 
"master (pid 957) is running..." when postfix isn't up, script returns: 
"master is stopped". Do I need to change this message to "0" for status 
check works ok??

Then, I can't startup only one node, when both are stopped, right??
