Then you are not using the distribution init script and you must include that logic yourself. Read it or read back in this thread. The only possible way it should die is if nagios -v didn't detect a fatal error. That would be a bug. If a person doesn't use the distribution init script then they are responsible for ensuring that the config is good before restart. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
