Description of problem: I've noticed few issues in the racoon init script. - It does not return correct exit status for status action as required by guidlines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SysVInitScript#Exit_Codes_for_the_Status_Action # /etc/init.d/racoon status racoon is stopped # echo $? 0 # /etc/init.d/racoon start Starting racoon: [ OK ] # /etc/init.d/racoon status racoon (pid 16452) is running... # echo $? 0 # killall racoon # /etc/init.d/racoon status racoon dead but pid file exists # echo $? 0 Obvious fix is to add RETVAL=$? to dostatus. Similar problem seems to affect restart action, and similar fix should work as well. - Script should provide separate reload action and not alias it to restart. racoon is expected to receive HUP and reloads configuration when HUPed. Reload action is used by if{up,down}-ipsec scripts. - Required actions try-restart and force-reload are not provided.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
