Hi, I found a problem with our init script design. We have the flag "Required-Start" and all listed services must be started before the init script is allowed to be started. I undestand it in this way, that an error should be printed if not all required services are installed ?
My problem: for ypbind, I have 2 dependencies: 1. portmap, it is a hard requirement and it must be running before ypbind could be started 2. ypserv: If ypserv is installed and configured, ypbind must be started after it. If it is not installed or confiured (on a NIS client, for example), we can ignore it. How should I write this dependencies in our current init script header? I think the only solution would be a second Start (and Stop ?) field, one for hard requirements, one for soft. Comments?
