Opened: 2003-12-13 12:39 0000

When DHCPD is run chroot'ed, "/etc/init.d/dhcp stop" reports [!!] and the
process continues to run.

STEPS TO DUPLICATE
1) emerge dhcp
2) edit /etc/conf.d/dhcp to use chroot, /etc/init.d/dhcp start
3) attempt /etc/init.d/dhcp stop

WHY IT HAPPENS

The stop() section of the init file fails to account for the possibility of a
chrooted setup.  

HOW TO FIX IT

Another comment:

The ebuild does not automatically create and chown to dhcp:dhcp the /chroot/dhcp/var/run/dhcp directory needed for dhcpd to store its PID.
