uShare init.d Control Script

uShare is a UPnP (TM) A/V & DLNA Media Server. It implements the server component that provides UPnP media devices with information on available multimedia files. uShare uses the built-in http server of libupnp to stream the files to clients.

uShare does come with it's own init.d script. But it just wasn't what I needed. So I made my own.

/etc/init.d/uShare
#!/usr/bin/env bash
