Hi, I was wondering whether there is a guideline regarding using Type=forking daemons in systemd units. For instance, if a daemon supports a cmdline switch to run in foreground isn't it better to use this argument in ExecStart? Personally, I was bitten by this with haveged.service which fails on shutdown and whose unit has Type=forking, but I also noticed that ntpd is allowed to fork. Both of them support foreground operation (haveged -F and ntpd -n respectively)? TIA, -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key: 0x164B5A6D Fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
