Geez. 28 years now and the only trouble I've had with running daemons via inittab would be when I broke something and the program would try to restart too fast. Init ensures (to a reasonble degree) that programs always run. And if init stopped, the computer has much bigger problems than a daemon not running. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
