#3 What is the meaning of ndsad return codes?

[Anonymous]

Hello.

When I run ndsad -d ndsad starts and detaches from
terminal, but return code is 1. Do I have an error in
configuration file?

If you see function:

int daemonize() {
int pid = fork();
if( pid < 0 ) {
// Error
DEB(__rep_error( "daemonize" , 0 ));
return 0;
} else if( pid ) {
// Parent
return 0;
} else {
// Child - have to log it.
writelog( "Child process started." );
return 1;
}
}

return code 1 is not fatal return code. Don't worry about
config file.

Yes. I saw that code ;)

The problem I see here, that such behaviour is not standart
for unix systems. I think that if program does not encounter
any problems, return code should be 0. In trouble it should
be non zero.

What do you think about this?
