I've confirmed that this issue occurs when starting the opendkim daemon
directly and is not an issue with start-stop-daemon or the
/etc/init.d/opendkim script. I've also confirmed that the problem
occurs whether I start the daemon as a non-root user via sudo or as user
root without sudo. The following does NOT start the opendkim daemon
approximately 10% of the time.
ssh -tt root@maverick '/usr/sbin/opendkim -x /etc/opendkim.conf -u
opendkim -P /var/run/opendkim/opendkim.pid -p inet:8891@localhost'
I see essentially identical behavior for the dk-filter daemon.
Additionally, the behavior is the same for 10.04 lucid, 10.10 maverick,
and 11.04 beta 2 natty. I have NOT been able to replicate the problem
on 9.10 karmic (but since it is a timing issue, I'm not sure if this
really is a new issue introduced since karmic).
Adding "&& sleep 1" to the command keeps the pty open long enough for
the daemon to be launched properly. With the one-second sleep in place,
I have not be able to replicate the issue.
