Description of problem: rwhod won't stay up for more than about 2 minutes, then systemd kills it Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rwho-0.17-36.fc16.i686 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. systemctl start rwhod.service 2. note this doesn't return for 2 minutes; note rwhod runs for 2 minutes 3. note rwhod is no longer running after 2 minutes Actual results: rwhod not running Expected results: rwhod running Additional info: /lib/systemd/system/rwhod.service has been configured with the PIDFile=/var/run/rwhod.pid parameter, telling systemd to expect a pid file when rwhod is happy. However rwhod never writes a pid file, so systemd kills it after 2 minutes. In prior Fedora releases, the /etc/init.d/rwhod script did a 'touch /var/run/rwhod.pid' for completeness. The fix is to remove the PIDFile arg from /lib/systemd/system/rwhod.service, or to modify rwhod source to get it to write a pid file.
This bug has been fixed together with bug #799246 and a new rwho-0.17-39.fc16 is already in F16. Please, try the new build also available here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-3344/rwho-0.17-39.fc16
