You're right, upstart has quite evolved in this area. After a short browse through the changelog, it seems as if even clearly is the most advanced I've seen so far when it comes to tracing daemon processes; probably even nailing down some difficult situations other init systems havn't even encountered yet. Don't get me wrong: I consider upstart to be by far the most promising init system we have. It's just that I also do like diversity, so I'd like to see support for other init systems as well. best regards, Erich Schubert _______________________________________________ initscripts-ng-devel mailing list initscripts-ng-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/initscripts-ng-devel
