btw. William, according to misc/herds.xml in the gentoo cvs module there is no net-misc herd. Also I can't find you listed in any herd. Would be nice, if this this would be fixed. Carsten: I'm an ex-gentoo dev. While I created the originial howl package, I didn't add it to portage and I don't have the access to fix it. >I'm an ex-gentoo dev.
Oh -- I'm sorry to hear that.
Stefan: There's a howl bug assigned to you, hope I'm not too wrong to provide you some bugs to work on. :)

if specify i specify MDNSRESPONDER_OPTS="-i eth1" in /etc/conf.d/mDNSResponder the init script will not work correctly i worked around it by changing: start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/mDNSResponder.pid \ --startas /usr/bin/mDNSResponder -- ${MDNSRESPONDER_OPTS} into: start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/mDNSResponder.pid \ --startas /usr/bin/mDNSResponder -- -i eth1 ${MDNSRESPONDER_OPTS} but that's not how it's supposed to work Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. edit /etc/conf.d/mDNSResponder so that it has MDNSRESPONDER_OPTS="-i eth1" 2. /etc/init.d/mDNSResponder start 3. /etc/init.d/mDNSResponder restart (this will show that mDNSResponder is not running as it cannot stop it) Actual Results: * Stopping mDNSResponder... * Failed to stop mDNSResponder [ !! ] Expected Results: * Stopping mDNSResponder... [ ok ] * Starting mDNSResponder... [ ok ]
