Description of problem: The rhnsd init script returns incorrect error codes and also some constructions in it prevent the correct status command call. For example: [ -x /usr/sbin/rhnsd ] || exit 0 [ -f /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid ] || exit 0 Also the script contains INTERVAL=240 which is IMHO configuration parameter that has nothing to do in the init script and should be moved to conf file.
