Exactly. I wonder why /etc/init.d/nscd returns RETVAL variable which
is returned by nscd. When stopping nscd, there is no need to return
such variable.
I would like to delete the below line:
stop)
echo -n "Stopping Name Service Cache Daemon: nscd"
/usr/sbin/nscd -K
-> RETVAL=$?
echo "."
;;
Is it OK?
