Description Benno Schulenberg 2005-02-12 06:15:01 UTC

When zapping a service, the message says "Manually resetting <service> to 
stopped state."  But a script has no hands.  :)  The term "Forcibly" seems 
more appropriate.

"Forcibly" might indicate that the script will kill/signal processes, while all it does is to nullify the pid-file.

manually is fine ... technically the user is manually running zap to force the service
to the stop state rather than running stop and letting the script do it
