[gentoo-user] "rc-scripts: status: stopped" log message

[Iain Buchanan]

My /var/log/messages is filling up with the lines like

May 24 12:01:50 orpheus rc-scripts: status:  stopped

They're coming in two's, about every two seconds.  What on earth is
causing this?

It's only been happening from about yesterday.  Not sure why.  I just
upgraded to the latest ~x86 everything, but it still happens...

thanks,

muddy paw prints on the hood of my car.

I made it a bit further:  something is calling
 "/etc/init.d/samba status" - I found this out by
editing /etc/init.d/runscript.sh and changing the output to print the
service name, so instead of 

rc-scripts: status:  stopped
I got 
rc-scripts: samba status:  stopped

So what's calling /etc/init.d/samba status all the time??

please, any suggestions are welcome.

I made it further still, and found out it only happens when I'm logged
in.

WHAT is testing the samba service continuously when I'm logged in?
