Package: dpkg
Version: 1.14.31
Debian Lenny distribution
When launching start-stop-daemon with -pidfile and --pidfile options
in order to create a dedicated pid file, the pid in the file is not
correct, and of course it is not possible later to destroy process
when launching --stop option.
Consider following test ....
admlocal@srv-dhcp-1:~$ ls -altr /var/run/ssh*
total 2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 jan 14 2009 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 1024 mai 15 07:46 ..
start-stop-daemon --start --verbose --make-pidfile --quiet --oknodo
--pidfile /var/run/sshd1.pid --exec /usr/sbin/sshd -- -f
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
After launching, ....
srv-dhcp-1:~# ps auxww |grep sshd
root 401 0.0 0.0 5232 956 ? Ss 07:49 0:00
/usr/sbin/sshd -f /etc/ssh/sshd_config
root 408 0.0 0.0 1720 516 console S+ 07:51 0:00 grep sshd
that is ok, but .....
srv-dhcp-1:~# ls -altr /var/run/ssh*pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4 May 15 07:49 /var/run/sshd1.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4 May 15 07:49 /var/run/sshd.pid
srv-dhcp-1:~# cat /var/run/sshd.pid
401
srv-dhcp-1:~# cat /var/run/sshd1.pid
400
First , there is 2 files instead only one, and in the documentation,
when using -make-pidfile , it is assume that the pid file is defined by
-pidfile option.
Second, in the /var/run/sshd1.pid , the pid is bad
Expected result :
Acoording man documentation, only one file must be created with correct
pid file
Many thank in advance to correct it

/var/run/sshd.pid
Contains the process ID of the sshd listening for connections
(if there are several daemons running concurrently for
different ports, this contains the process ID of the one
started last). The content of this file is not sensitive; it
can be world-readable.
Perhaps you were probably looking for "sshd -D". If you have ideas
for improving the explanation of this (relationship of --make-pidfile
to programs that daemonize and make their own pidfile) in the
start-stop-daemon documentation, I imagine that would be quite
welcome.
Thanks and hope that helps,
Jonathan
