Description Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2008-01-08 08:30:25 UTC

The "start()" in /etc/init.d/rpc.statd has a line "is_running && return 0". This line causes rpc.statd to never start for me. rpc.statd is not running (at least to "ps -A | grep statd").

I'm quite sure the check is necessary and usefull but I also think it's wrong. 

Commenting out the line at least enables me to start up my system (some essential files come from NFS shares).

Reproducible: Always
