rc.sendmailanalyzer not stopping corectly #36

Closed sirydog81 closed 8 years ago

i see there are two process running, a parent and a child

#ps -auxf
root      3662  0.0  0.2   7668  4924 ?        Ss   12:25   0:00 sendmailanalyzer
root      3663  0.0  0.0   1972   568 ?        S    12:25   0:00  \_ /usr/bin/tail -n 0 -F /var/log/maillog

rc.sendmailanalyzer stop is trying to stop process 3662 that is saved in the sendmailanalyzer.pid file. In my case it always fails. Even if if i force kill the parent, the child still remains and becomes a zombie.

Both processes belong to same PGID

# ps x -o  "%p %r %c"
  PID  PGID COMMAND
 3662  3662 sendmailanalyze
 3663  3662 tail

so i modified the script to kill all processes belonging to that GPID:

kill **-- -**$pid 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null
