Experienced Server Admins, So I've installed daemontools as outlined in the following document (to the letter): http://www.thedjbway.org/daemontools/installation.html, everything at this point is working a-ok.
Then I move on to the tutorial document: http://www.thedjbway.org/daemontools/blabbyd.html, I can succesfully make it about a 3rd of the way down the page to the line that states "That's it! Within 5 seconds daemontools' svscan will start the blabbyd service for you automatically.". The next few paragraphs are where all my problems begin, when I run: # svstat /service/blabbyd I do not get an incremental count of how long the daemon has been running for, I get a new PID everytime I query it. See my results below: # svstat /service/blabbyd/ /service/blabbyd/: up (pid 4229) 0 seconds # svstat /service/blabbyd /service/blabbyd: up (pid 4231) 1 seconds # svstat /service/blabbyd /service/blabbyd: up (pid 4233) 1 seconds What am I missing? This isn't my first attempt either, when I used the install docs at: http://cr.yp.to/daemontools/install.html against /usr/sbin/cupsd I got the same results. I even compared Jeff's document at: http://jclement.ca/docs/daemon_tools/daemon_tools and didn't find anything either. System: RedHat 9 daemontools 0.76 Thanks for any insight offered... cS _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
