Hi Brenda,
[Benda Xu] > Do you think init-d-script unconditionally returning 0 is a typo? > Should it be `exit $?` instead? Not quite sure, but as far as I know, the init.d scripts do not have a standard for exit codes. There is no use of exit codes from init.d scripts in /etc/init.d/rc. Error handling and reporting during start and stop is supposed to take place within the init.d script itself, not passed on to the caller as an exit code. With that background, it is no reason not to always return 0 unless incorrect arguments are used on the command line. As /etc/init.d/rc is not running with 'set -e', it do not really matter if the scripts exit with an error code. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
