Re: [PLUG] inet won't shut down


stop)
        echo -n "Stopping INET services: "
        killproc inetd
        RETVAL=$?

        echo
        [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/inet
        ;;


I see there is a 'killproc' command. So I guss this killproc command is failing?





At 02:55 PM 3/19/01 -0500, you wrote:
RH 6.2 machine

when i do this
'/etc/rc.d/init.d/inet stop'
it says
Stopping INET services: [ OK ]
looking at the inet script i see that what is doing is removing the inet file from the /var/lock/subsys directory
It does do this successfully.
But when I do a
'/etc/rc.d/init.d/inet status'
I get a pid back which show that inet is still running.


Any idea why, and how it can be fixed?

Also what is the mechanism which kills
 a process if you remove its file from /var/lock/subsys?
