A friend of mine did a woody install, after the install, no daemons would load. There was a /sbin/start-stop-daemon.REAL, as well as a normal one:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8956 Oct 17 00:25 /sbin/start-stop-daemon -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17332 Aug 21 23:51 /sbin/start-stop-daemon.REAL Moving the start-stop-daemon away, and copying the .REAL one into it's place fixed it all... so what is this .REAL file doing there? Any ideas? It doesn't belong to a package, it is not a diversion ... and it is quite a serious problem. As it wasn't me that installed it, I cannot say if there was anything funny about the install. (It doesn't sound like it though.) Hugo van der Merwe
