I used /var/lib/dibbler/client.pid as the pid file, because that is the file that is created by the program itself. The path is hard coded in the software and can not be changed in a configuration file. I patch would be needed when another location was needed. So I thought it was preferable to use the default path from dibbler itself Bart -- ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de
