I don't think it should be. Most daemons write their pid (process ID) to a pid-file on startup. When you stop an rc script it reads the pid-file and checks to see that there is a process with that pid and which has the correct command line. If no match is found you get that warning. Reinstalling a port shouldn't affect the pid file. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
