Hi Mark,
I was seeing the following:
1) One dhcpd would start.
2) Every 10 seconds thereafter, another dhcpd would be started, but it
couldn't bind to the port since the first one was running.
It appears that the startupitem infrastructure wasn't keeping track of
dhcpd running and deamonizing itself.
I haven't read the guide yet. What do you suggest? Putting a -f to
dhcpd so it stays in the foreground?
Regards,
Blair

Hi Blair,
Executable startupitems are the preferred type. Daemondo can track
pids
automatically and reliably restart an application if it quits. See
the
guide on this:
http://guide.macports.org/#reference.startupitems
Given how startupitem executables work, I don't see an advantage to
reverting to a "script" startupitem. Or is there something I am
missing
particular to dhcp?
Mark

-----------
Use a startupitem method that uses dhcpd's PID file.
