Description Marian Csontos 2011-03-16 13:10:04 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #679824 +++

rhts-compat service must start as the last one as it blocks.

Currently rc.local is not processed (which is compatible with rhts but it should be considered a bug.) while rhts-compat service is running.

Options:
- starting rhts-compat from rc.local only
- make rhts-compat non-blocking by starting in background

We ship screen with every release.  and I know screen can start services detached..

Couldn't this replace the need for beah-rhts-compat service?

Comment 2 Marian Csontos 2011-03-24 07:39:45 UTC
I have used detached screen sessions in cases where dumb pty was not enough and I wanted to avoid compatible mode. In my case it was fine.

But I do not want more of those old-day compatibility issues.

Answer: may be.

Bulk reassignment of issues as Bill has moved to another team.

Comment 5 Martin Styk 2020-02-11 12:18:00 UTC
Beah is no longer supported by Beaker development team.
Instead of that, we are working on Restraint test harness. You can find all the features of Restraint here.

If you think your RFE should be still implemented as part of Restraint feel free to create a new BZ ticket.

Thank you,
