Hi to all !

On unixes it's quite common, that if some daemon started from
init rc scripts fails, it's possible to re/start it paintless by  hand 
again ...
( but not on Gentoo ? )

Let's try this:

#pkill -9  some_daemon

#/etc/init.d/some_daemon  start  (or restart)

You'll get stupid message "running already" and
the command fails with no action ... :o)

 so probably stop is needed before ;-)

#/etc/init.d/some_daemon  stop

You'll get  message "not running", but if you try start it
again, stupid message comes again ! :-(

It's getting me really very  nervous ... :-(

PS.
When I switched from RH to Gentoo, the first thing
I was worry about were rc init scripts, because I can
only hardly to imagine something better then system 5 ones...
let's try to convince me I am wrong :-)


Noro
