Check whether the 'killall' or 'skill' commands have been installed on your system. Check the manual pages. You should be aboe to do one of these [assuming that the information about 'httpd' renamed to 'apache2' is correct]: killall -HUP apache2 skill -HUP -c apache2 and then: cd / /etc/init.d/apache2 start It looks like 'killall' is in the "psmisc" package, if you don't have it installed. http://www.ducea.com/2008/08/18/killall-in-debian/ I will add my voice to the rising choir saying, find out why the thing disappears before everything goes. ;-) What do you mean, you use your own daemon? Do you mean, your own shell script to start the daemon? -- /*********************************************************************\ ** ** Joe Yao jsdy@xxxxxxx - Joseph S. D.
