I know what /etc/init.d/nagios looks like, thank you :)

My point was that the "ps -p" check is currently not the most elegant  
solution to perform the check. It would be better if Ethan or someone  
else fixed the init script in the various packages, so that it would  
work properly. He could include something like:

[ -f $NagiosPID == "" ] || (echo "Something went wrong reading the  
Nagios PID from $NagiosRunFile);

Which should come right after the setting of $NagiosPID. I know, it's  
a nasty kludge, but at least it'll catch the error if $NagiosPID  
isn't read properly.

Cheers,


Thomas
