What happens if you run smartd manually in debug mode and without forking: sudo port unload smartmontools sudo /opt/local/sbin/smartd -n -d -c /opt/local/etc/smartd.conf When I ran manually without sudo smartd complained about not being able to write a state file to: /opt/local/var/lib/smartmontools/smartd.Hitachi_HDS722020ALA330-JK1174YAK4MZ3W.ata.state Regards, Bradley Giesbrecht (pixilla)
