Description of problem: As per title. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 claims to conform to the LSB 3.0. It seems quite surprising to me that no one has noticed this bug. See http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_3.0.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptfunc.html . ==================================================== $ . /lib/lsb/init-functions $ pidofproc -p /var/run/klogd.pid klogd pidof: invalid options on command line! pidof: invalid options on command line! ==================================================== Debian and SuSE get this right I believe. It looks like 'killproc' has the same bug.
start_daemon also have the same problem.
