Hello, Arvinn:
No, I've never seen this, but this likely has nothing to do with policyd
itself. A few quetsions:
1) Do you experience this with any other programs?
2) I'm assuming you are launching policyd as "root"?
3) What shell are you using? (Also, make sure all the limit/ulimit
settings have typical root priviledges after you log in or "su"
to "root".)
4) Does turning up the DEBUG level show anything revealing in the logs?
5) Are you using the init script thatcomes with policy d (under
contributed software, I believe):
#!/bin/bash
#
# Init file for Policy Daemon
#
# chkconfig: 2345 55 25
# description: Postfix Policy Daemon
#
# processname: policyd
# source function library
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
RETVAL=0
PROG="/usr/local/policyd/policyd"
CONF="/usr/local/policyd/policyd.conf"
start()
{
echo -n $"Starting $PROG:"
#initlog -c "$PROG -c $CONF" && success || failure
daemon "$PROG -c $CONF"
RETVAL=$?
[ "$RETVAL" = 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/policyd
echo
}
stop()
{
echo -n $"Stopping $PROG:"
killproc policyd
RETVAL=$?
[ "$RETVAL" = 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/policyd
echo
}
restart()
{
stop
start
}
case "$1" in
start)
start
;;
stop)
stop
;;
restart)
restart
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
RETVAL=1
esac
exit $RETVAL
I ask, because otherwise, you might have a stray lock file somewhere
that's preventing policyd from running properly.
Regards,

Hi. Thanks for a fine product.
I have set DAEMON=1 in the config.
I have some troubles with running policyd as a daemon though. Every time
after starting policyd in a ssh terminal I am not able to end the ssh
terminal when logging out afterwards. The ssh terminal lives forever
until I kill the policyd process that was started from within it, or
until I kill the sshd process itself.
Does anybody else experience the same problem?
OS:. CentOS 5
Policyd 1.82.

Arvinn
