Nope. Not that I've tested that many. On the other hand I have tested it 
on 8 different systems. Same behavior.

As of now yes. I've planned to change it to an unprivileged user before 
production setting though.

Running bash as root. Running policyd -c policyd.conf (or 
/etc/init.d/policyd start or restart) then exit -> ssh lives forever.

Nope :(.

Yes I use this init script. But whether I use it or not has no effect on 
the behavior I described. Same thing happens when I try to leave the ssh 
login shell. When I run the init script all looks good like every other 
init scripts. And policyd works like a charm, or in other words; it does 
exactly what it is supposed to do.. I've ran it with greylisting in 
training mode on several nodes for some days and I have cumulated more 
than 300k's of rows in the triplet table. Nothing suspicious at all; 
Except the way it insists to keep my terminal.
