Hello list,
I am trying to pass these arguments
-N -p -F "not host foo"
to a binary, but
ARGS="-N -p -F 'not host foo'"
$DAEMON $ARGS
get's passed as 6 arguments and not 4.
Using xargs this works, but I'd like to not introduce that dependency:
ARGS="-N -p -F 'not host foo'"
echo $ARGS | xargs $DAEMON
Now for the complete picture, it's the init script for arpwatch. Options that
should be passed to arpwatch can be specified by the sysadm in
/etc/default/arpwatch with is sourced by the initscript and then passed (via
start-stop-daemon) to the arpwatch binary.
This is on debian stable, package version 0.5.5.1-7.4
