Subject: check script
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 14:44:40 +0000 (WET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0703121432480.31479@jmaa.math.ist.utl.pt> (raw)

I ran socklog-conf and it created a file /etc/sv/socklog-unix/check that
looks like a run script:
 	#!/bin/sh
 	exec 2>/dev/null
 	exec socklog-check unix /dev/log
Reading the man page for socklog-check, I would expect the run script
for the socklog-unix service to be like
 	#!/bin/sh
 	exec 2>&1
 	socklog-check || exit 1
 	exec chpst -Usyslogger socklog unix /dev/log
Instead, it is
 	#!/bin/sh
 	exec 2>&1
 	exec chpst -Usyslogger socklog unix /dev/log
and the check script is just aside the run script.

Can someone explain what is the purpose of /etc/sv/socklog-unix/check?
