Re: Question about rc-scripts

Hi Derek, Not all scripts create a pid file is the simple answer. I didn't see how the isc-dhcpd script or dovecot created a pid, so I assumed it was something that rc.subr took care of. Your script should create the pid file on start, remove it on stop, and simply cat that file on a status.

Re: Question about rc-scripts

Again, I thought the rc.subr functions took care of all that for you (unless you wanted something special from those commands). In general, they do see /etc/rc.subr: check_pidfile(), wait_for_pids(), Most binaries i.e. httpd, memcached, mysqld, etc... provide a config file or cli opt
