Dear dpkg maintainers,
I run into problem with s-s-d and linux-containers,
this time it is nscd init script which kills nscd daemons inside conatiners when it is stopped on the host system.
Would it make sense to implement a check for a PPID of a process ?
that's how it looks on my system:
#ps -ef | grep nscd
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
root 29214 1 0 16:03 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/nscd
root 29267 10895 0 16:03 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/nscd
process with ppid 1 belongs to the host system, the second is in lxc.
So if s-s-d would check by default only processes with ppid 1 and optionally have a flag disabling this check would solve the potential problems with init scripts.
thank you,
Alex
