I guess I didn't ask this quite right, let me try again. Using sshd as an
example;
If the sshd process, which was started by the /etc/rc.d/sshd script, were
to die,
does the current rc.d scheme automatically call the /etc/rc.d/sshd script
with "start"
or "restart"? Or must that be handled by some user (sysadmin/owner/...)
supplied
scripting?
I find references to "restart", but didn't notice anything that suggested the
rc scheme
would/could automatically do this.
Thanks,
Paul
