Has anyone got any idea why a SIGHUP is sent to all processes started by /etc/rc.local once the script has finished ? This has caused me quite a few problems (well one anyway) because my 'innd' process would dissappear for no apparent reason shortly after starting - it doesn't ignore SIGHUP. I've fixed it by saying `trap "" 1` in /etc/rc.local before calling rc.news, but I'm not sure why the SIGHUP in the first place... -- Brian <brian@awfulhak.demon.co.uk>
