On second thoughts, I think I meant this the other way around - systemd invoking an upstart compatible daemon, since it seems like upstart is more likely to support the systemd socket activation protocol than systemd is to support upstart's SIGSTOP protocol. > The wrapper could fork > and then exec the daemon in the *parent*, and have the *child* listen for > the notification message and then kill(SIGSTOP) its parent and immediately > exit. I wonder if that would actually work.... Nice :) Cheers, aj
