No. I'm pointing out why $all doesn't do what you want. «$all» means «after everything else has started» and if you have two of those, you have a loop. Loops are bugs. In your particular case (and sysvinit), I'd say the admin should just add dependencies on the monit script for the monitored services since I don't think sysvinit support dynamically generating those dependencies on boot. (If it does, I'm sure somebody will chime in with how to do it for sysvinit.) With systemd, I'd say a generator that adds After+Wants: $monitored_services would be the right (and better) solution (this would also solve the shutdown problem). I assume upstart has a reasonable way to solve this, but I'm not familiar with what it should be. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
