in thread Address Bind issue reincarnation

Hi almut,

I wanted to have a proper control of my server code to stop and start the server daemon. Using daemontools, I came to know that I can keep my command in rc.local, but that is no better control of the daemon as per my understanding.

I made a script in init.d to start, stop, restart and to check the status of my daemon.

It would had been great if I could had used xinetd, but this is a lightweighted code anywayz.

thanks for the support

    Ummm, start reading the daemontools documentation. You may also want to read a more "human readable" intro to daemontools.

    daemontools and rc.local are VERY different. The only thing they have in common is that you usually use a shell script to start your daemon.
