Perhaps I misunderstand you, but whether Qmail is patched or not has nothing to do with Vpopmail's use of "ps" to determine a pid of whatever process it needs to restart. As for performing in a chroot'ed environment, as long as that environment has /bin/ps it won't be an issue. -- Steve >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Steve Fulton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Sunday, October 13, 2002 10:42 PM >Subject: Re: [vchkpw] ps > > > > At 13:55 13/10/2002 +0200, Raboo Treed wrote: > > > > >Isn't it better to make vpopmail leave a pid file instead then? > > > > Sure, if Vpopmail actually had a daemonized process, but it doesn't.
