Thanks Mike,
How was psad installed on your system?
Advertising
I took the latest src.rpm from the Fedora 20 repo and rebuilt it on RHEL6 -
which makes sense that the latest Fedora is using the newer style compared to
RHEL6. I bet it would have been a clean install on RHEL7 beta.
Here is the init script that is in my RPM.
#!/bin/bash
#
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/psad
#
# Starts the psad daemon
#
# chkconfig: - 95 5
# description: The Port Scan Attack Detector (psad)
# processname: psad
#
# Return values according to LSB for all commands but status:
# 0 - success
# 1 - generic or unspecified error
# 2 - invalid or excess argument(s)
# 3 - unimplemented feature (e.g. "reload")
# 4 - insufficient privilege
# 5 - program is not installed
# 6 - program is not configured
# 7 - program is not running
