That program would just need to wait() on the pid after sending the signal, so the shell scripts would know that in the line after stopping a daemon, the daemon has been stopped and they can launch it again. Should i report the bug? I've just checked the source of that command and there is no trace of wait/waitpid calls. Bye -- Salvo Tomaselli
