Hi all, I believe I've run across a bug in the LFS Bootscripts. It appears to me that if the concerned script (I've only tested BLFS scripts, but I suppose I could kill the sysklog stuff and try it) is not started, and you issue a
/etc/rc.d/init.d/script status command, it will report that it is running, even though it is not. With a cursory glance at the function script, it appears to be some malfunction in the getpid section. I really didn't try to follow it, but it seems to me that it is doing a PS and reporting the PID of the PS process (which has the name in it, so I believe it *thinks* that the process is alive). It reports that the daemon is running with such-and-such PID, but that PID really doesn't exist except at the moment the status was checked. Can anyone else confirm this behavior? -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 14:30:00 up 127 days, 14:03, 2 users, load average: 0.67, 0.35, 0.48 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
