Customizing Sametime 12

Sametime 12 Start/Stop Script

I have written a script for starting and stopping the sametime containers. The script is for Sametime 12 on Docker.
It can be found here:

git clone https://github.com/kholmqvist/sametime.git

Please note that my sametime folder is placed in /opt. So if yours is placed elsewhere, then change the sametime_dir="/opt/sametime" variable to your needs
