Normally swat runs through inetd so if you start it manually like that you will probably have multiple copies running, with some copies served by inetd and others from the startup. I think the installation notes say something about choosing one method or the other, but not both. Try not starting it from either of your methods, and just see if it responds anyway.
Cheers, Jill. -----Original Message----- From: Edwin Humphries [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 30 September 2004 10:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SLUG] Starting swat spawns multiple instances I'm trying to start swat on a new RH ES 3 install. When I start it (either as "service swat start or " or as "/etc/init.d/swat start") it spawns several copies of swat and many copies of service, swamps RAM and then goes into swap file chaos and locks the machine. Has anyone seen this, or know a fix to it? Regards, Edwin Humphries, Managing Director Mobile: 0419 233 051 Ironstone Technology Pty Ltd P. O.
