Description of problem: There are some flaws in /etc/init.d/crond: 1. reload() should use either 'retval' or 'RETVAL' but not both: | reload() { | retval=$? | ... | return $RETVAL | } 2. The 'exit $?' at the end of the script is redundant since sh-scripts are returning always with the exit-code of the last command ($?) 3. The 'RETVAL=0' statement at the begin of the script does not has an effect since RETVAL is used inside of functions only Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vixie-cron-3.0.1-76
Thanks, should get finally fixed in vixie-cron-3.0.1-94.
This was fixed vixie-cron-3.0.1-94 & in latest version: vixie-cron-4.1-10.
