Hi,
I've added a new line to the /etc/inittab file to monitor the CFEngine
daemon and restart it in case this one dies.
cfe:2345:respawn:/var/cfengine/bin/cf-execd
The cf-execd is re-spawned as expected, except the fact that multiple
processes are created at once.
I therefore have about 20+ cf-execd processes running where I only need 1.
Any idea what's causing this and how to solve it?
Regards,

If you start things from /etc/inittab, you must make sure they do not
fork; I have no idea what cf-execd does, but its manpage mentions the
--no-fork option :)
(If a process in inittab is spawned more than N times, init will stop
respawining it for a while)
